Reviews"The second edition of this wonderful guide for psychotherapists is a gift to all of us who struggle with tailoring the therapeutic approach to the specific, idiosyncratic qualities of each patient. Mary Jo Peebles combines rigorous scholarship and her own subjective observations about how to begin psychotherapy in a way that assures the treatment course will follow the optimal path that both patient and therapist seek. She illuminates many of the dark uncertainties that haunt therapists as they approach their new patients, and she provides invaluable advice for even the most experienced therapists. I heartily recommend this volume to both new students and senior clinicians."- Glen O. Gabbard, M.D., author, Long-Term Psychodynamic Psychotherapy "Beginnings is an outstanding introduction to the craft and science of psychotherapy for trainees from a broad range of professional backgrounds and theoretical orientations. Peebles seamlessly weaves together theory, research, and clinical wisdom with the unique voice and sensibility of a master clinician and teacher. Replete with vivid clinical examples and hard-earned insights, this book stands in a class of its own. Readers will find themselves carried along on a panoramic tour of the psychotherapy landscape that is both practical and inspiring."- Jeremy D. Safran, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology, New School for Social Research, and Faculty, NYU Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis "This gracefully written book elaborates the well-founded belief that a good beginning holds the key to effective psychotherapy. Peebles marshalls in convincing fashion the ample evidence that good beginnings have two essential components: a positive working alliance characterized by trust, respect, and positive expectations and a clear treatment focus consisting of patient-therapist agreement on the goals of the treatment and the procedures that will be followed in pursuing these goals. In doing so, she combines extensive coverage of relevant theoretical formulations and research findings with detailed guidelines for implementing good beginnings and numerous illustrative case excerpts. This is one of those rare books that will be appreciated by psychotherapy researchers and practitioners alike and valued by psychotherapists at all levels of experience."- Irving B. Weiner, Ph.D., Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Neurosciences, University of South Florida "My interest is to train therapists in evidence-based treatments that have the validated treatment methods but typically lack a framework to incorporate the therapist's emotional and personal experiences toward optimizing the therapeutic relationship. The field needs Dr. Peebles' book to help us navigate the ambiguities of psychotherapy, guide us to listen before choosing the evidence-based intervention, and listen more to evaluate our choices. I like best the way she discusses the often abstract concept of boundaries; she gets right to the point of how to set healthy boundaries, be empathic, and stay connected and on course in the midst of often intense emotional struggles." - Edmund C. Neuhaus, Ph.D., ABPP, Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychology, Harvard Medical School, "Beginnings is an outstanding introduction to the craft and science of psychotherapy for trainees from a broad range of professional backgrounds and theoretical orientations.
