Emotional links between therapists and their clients can help or hinder the therapeutic process. This comprehensive book examines how the main approaches deal with transference, looking at the technical and ethical difficulties in understanding transference from a theoretical point of view and with clinical illustration.

Looks at why therapy can go on for too long or can come to a destructively premature ending. Offers advice on how to avoid either with a timely conclusion. It includes vivid examples and practical guidelines.

The outcome of therapy is always to some extent determined by success of the initial session. In 'Setting Out' the issues surrounding this subject are explored, providing useful insights into the significance of beginnings in psychotherapy.
