"... Great. Great. Great. Buy. Buy. Buy...one of the few works on therapy which I would attempt to salvage if shipwrecked on a desert island..." (Ipnosis, No.16, Winter 2004)
Kurzbeschreibung
In this controversial book, psychologists Barry Duncan and Scott Miller, cofounders of the Institute for the Study of Therapeutic Change, challenge the traditional focus on diagnosis, "silver bullet" techniques, and magic pills, exposing them as empirically bankrupt practices that only diminish the role of clients and hasten therapy's extinction. Instead, they advocate for the long-ignored but most crucial factor in therapeutic success-the innate resources of the client. Based on extensive clinical research and case studies, "The Heroic Client" not only shows how to harness the client's powers of regeneration to make therapy effective, but also how to enlist the client as a partner to make therapy accountable. "The Heroic Client" inspires therapists to boldly rewrite the drama of therapy, recast clients in their rightful role as heroes and heroines of the therapeutic stage, and legitimize their services to third-party payers without the compromises of the medical model.

In The Heroic Client, Barry Duncan and Scott Miller consider the whole field of "mental health," the roles of client and therapist, and the central question of what helps in therapy. They address mental health mythologies that affect the practice of therapy, including a pervasive reliance on medication, diagnosis, the medical model and priveleging the therapist's expertise. The book asks us to reflect on why we have lost confidence in the person-to-person collaboration of talk therapy, curious in light of the fact that research continues to show that talk therapy is more effective and enduring than medication for most of the problems people bring to therapy.
Duncan and Miller present an exciting, well-researched and thought-provoking argument for client-directed, outcome-informed therapy, which they call "co-therapy." Based on the research on what makes for success in therapy, Duncan and Miller propose we place greater reliance on the theories of change, experiences and strengths clients bring and less on our preferred causal theories and techniques.
This is a courageous and challenging book. Every mental health professional and consumer should read it. It can make a difference. Tobey Hiller MFT and Phillip Ziegler, MFT.

This book is a must-read for all mental health professionals! Based on 40 years of outcome research regarding "what works in therapy," Barry Duncan and Scott Miller have articulated a way of being with clients that emphasizes collaboration, respect, and honors their theories of change. The authors challenge many of the dominant theoretical, political, and social discourses that have been privileged in society and unfortunately have informed psychotherapy practice in ways that tend to alienate and stigmatize clients and lead therapists astray. What they advocate for is therapy that is client-directed and outcome-informed, thereby honoring clients' voices and perspectives. This in and of itself has been a long time coming and is worth the price of admission. The Heroic Client is a thoroughly-researched book, and one that I have and will continue to recommend to my students and colleagues. It's a must for all mental health professionals!

For many years,both clients and therapists alike have been encouraged, rewarded,and more recently pressured into trying to squeaze themselves into what all too often becomes an ill-fitting medical model box.This box sometimes fits the needs of particular client and therapist,but most of the time one or both of the participants in this drama become disenchanted/disheartened and they remove themself from the interaction either physically ( drop out of therapy - leave the profession ) or emotionally ( burn-out/become bad therapists ).The work of Scott Miller,Barry Duncan,and others have, over the past few years, served to help breath some much needed life into the helping professions...particularly that of psychotherapy.Their most recent book,The Heroic Client, is, with the benifit of hindsight, a logical extension of their previous works/philosophy.This is a book for therapists who work in the proverbial trenches on a day to day basis.It speaks to the everyday concerns of therapists...how to be of help to others, and still like yourself in the morning...and actually want to get up in the morning to do it all over again.This book encourages therapists to surrender their hardwon professional ego/identity in the higher service of helping others discover who they are and what they want versus us trying to " encourage " our clients to learn to want what we think they should want( to be ).I for one though compassionate/sensitive etc. have done more than my fair share of theraputic manipulation over the past 23 years as a social worker.This book nurtures an impulse I've had growing inside of me for years to leave behind the illusion of security of the medical model of mental health ( does that not qualify as an oxymoron?)for the more exciting and potentially liberating process of working in a more colaborating fashion with my clients.This books medium ( no distancing professional jargon;an abundance of enlighting humor; easy to read; it's brevity;and willingness to tackle the difficult and politically incorrent issues like the limits of psychopharmacology )is very much in concert with it's message.I highly recommend The Heroic Client for both therapists and those who are considering going into therapy as a client.
