## Description

“Right on target. Innovative, nothing comes near it in occupational therapy. A sophisticated meld of occupational therapy and psychology. It is very innovative for occupational therapy and other fields. I am thoroughly impressed.” “I have found no occupational therapy book more interesting to me than this one. I always have to go outside of the field to find such rich and interesting material.” ―Sharan Schwartzberg, EdD, OTR, FAOTA, Tufts University, Boston, Massachusetts This groundbreaking new book addresses a critical aspect of the occupational therapy practice―the art and science of building effective, fulfilling relationships with clients. A distinguished clinician and educator, Renee Taylor, PhD, uses a new conceptual practice model, the Intentional Relationship Model, to define how the client and the therapist each contribute to the unique interpersonal dynamic that becomes the therapeutic relationship. She emphasizes how therapists must act deliberately, thoughtfully, and with vigilant anticipation of the challenges and breakthroughs that have the potential to influence the course of the relationship. Actual case examples from 12 exceptional clinicians from around the world illustrate how this model is used to address many of the challenging interpersonal situations that commonly occur in therapy. And, guided exercises and assignments help readers master the skills they need and apply them to a wide range of clinical situations and presenting problems.

Review: I strongly recommend that you buy this bookl! - The book arrived on time, was in excellent condition, and was significantly cheaper on desertcart than at my campus bookstore. I strongly recommend that you buy this book if you are in OT school, especially at TWU, because you will use it for several classes. It is easy to read, teaches you about The Intentional Relationship Model, therapeutic modes, and has a self assessment that allows you to determine what modes you demonstrate strength in, and what modes you need to work on. The book also has strategies on how to deal with difficult situations that may arise with clients, as well as insight from practicing occupational therapists.
Review: Actually helpful - After 30 years "in the business", I rejoice in finding material that is beyond theoretical. This book is grounded in research AND it offers applications in every chapter to help a practitioner in any therapeutic profession enlarge their repetoire of interactive technique. I see it as a great tool to use with interns and of value to experienced therapists who want to challenge themselves to be able to do more.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great resource for professional development
*by A***Y on February 20, 2013*

I was preparing for a performance review at work and read a good portion of this book, and took the self assessment on personal strengths and areas of growth. I've found this very helpful with developing my therapeutic use of self, and thought this was a great book! I wish they had gone over forming therapeutic relationships with patients more when I was in OT school.
