Ruptures in the therapeutic alliance are common. If left unresolved,
they can lead patients to drop out, among other poor outcomes.
Repairing therapeutic ruptures is an important process that is
relevant for practitioners of all theoretical orientations. This
volume collects the work of 12 teams of scholars and clinicians, each
of whom is expert in a different therapeutic context or theoretical
approach, to describe clinical challenges in resolving common
therapeutic ruptures. The authors use case studies to describe
realistic, complex clinical examples of rupture and provide strategies
and principles therapists can use to help navigate these challenges
more successfully with their patients. As therapists and patients
work together their alliance can come under strain, sometimes because
of disagreements over therapeutic goals, and sometimes due to a lack
of trust and respect. These moments of stress where the relationship
has ruptured are challenges, but also opportunities for growth.
