Control Therapy : An Integrated Approach to Psychotherapy, Health, and Healing

This is the first comprehensive work devoted to control theory and the use of control-based techniques in psychotherapy, addressing issues of control and self-control as they apply to various families of therapy approaches. The book stresses that therapy should engage clients in assessing the amount of control they have over their own lives, and help them learn more effective control responses in cognitive, behavioral, and affective aspects of their lives.
