Almost two thirds of counsellors and psychotherapists work with clients in up to twenty sessions each: this book reflects that reality and the challenges involved.

It was also a leading contribution to the movement towards time-conscious counselling and to an understanding of the therapeutic alliance across time.
The second edition has been thoroughly updated to include significant recent professional developments and new thinking in the counselling field. Additions include more detailed discussion of:
- Assessment
- Contracting
- Very brief counselling
- Clinical reasoning
- Clients' modalities
