In this book she addresses the confusion that exists in this area of professional practice in a very productive way, clarifying it in fashion that offers guidance that is ethical, legal and in the best interests of both the patient and the therapist. Her common sense approach to termination issues is refreshing and makes this book a must read for all mental health professionals regardless of their specialty.\"\u003cbr\u003e —\u003cb\u003eJeffrey N.

With sensitivity, Denise Davis provides a helpful compilation of practical pitfalls that might befall any therapeutic alliance. This work is a \"must-read\" clinical treasure… Davis’ work clearly fills a gap in the literature to enrich client and clinician alike.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e—James L.
