Alliance Rupture Repair in Cognitive Behavioral Therapies

This practice-oriented volume helps clinicians recognize, address, and repair ruptures in the therapeutic alliance in CBT. Alliance breakdowns often prompt clients to drop out of treatment, while a strong alliance paves the way for improved outcomes. Although CBT is known for its structured, evidence-based methods, its collaborative nature and relational frame have received comparatively less attention. This book fills that gap by bridging research and practice. Each chapter focuses on a specific clinical population or challenge, weaving together the latest research findings with case examples, therapist-client dialogues, and practical tools in a clear, reader-friendly format.
