Numerous case studies and therapy dialogues are used to demonstrate the concrete procedure. Each chapter looks at the typical difficulties and their solutions, gives tips, deals with frequently asked questions and answers as well as suggesting further literature.

The editors, professors at the Psychological Institute of Berlin and the University of Marburg, follow the guiding principles a ‘scientific practitioner’ would use: scientifically proven methods are put directly into practice. A number of well-known authors present empirically based methods (including the new integrative techniques of behavioral therapy). At the same time, a variety of case studies and video clips are used to illustrate behavioral therapy in practice.
