Psychotherapy and the Promiscuous Patient

By E. Mark Stern and E Mark Stern

Book Overview

Learn effective strategies for therapy with promiscuous patients from this in-depth exploration of the phenomenon of promiscuity in the lives and backgrounds of patients seeking psychotherapy. This unique book features insights about the pitfalls of patients who cannot bear commitment to any one person, or who jeopardize their commitments with a need to spark their lives with promiscuity. Psychotherapy and the Promiscuous Patient teaches psychotherapists to respond to their patients' promiscuous behavior as a symptom of a problem, not the problem itself.
