The Encyclopedia of Psychotherapy, Second Edition, Three Volume Set covers the major psychotherapies currently in practice as well as the classical approaches that laid the foundation for the various contemporary treatment approaches. In addition, the encyclopaedia identifies the scientific studies conducted on the efficacy of the therapies and review the theoretical basis of each therapy.

The new edition has been thoroughly updated from the first edition, focusing on major modes of psychotherapy practice and core psychotherapy processes. Outdated entries have been culled or combined with other entries in a manner that better communicates the content to present-day readers (e.g., “water-misting therapy” can be addressed in a more cohesive entry covering the use of punishment techniques more generally).
