Functional analytic psychotherapy (FAP) is a research-based treatment for mental health disorders and has been shown to enhance the quality of interpersonal relationships.

In this book, youāll find an introduction to the conceptual foundations and clinical practice of FAP, with an emphasis on practical clinical scenarios and personal reflection. Youāll learn the theoretical basis of FAP in contextual behavioral science and how to apply functional analysisāthe core assessment method of behavior therapyāto the therapeutic relationship.

And finally, youāll discover how to apply principles to effectively cope with challenging moments in the therapeutic relationshipsāsuch as how to address ineffective behavior happening in the therapy interaction from the first moment of therapy, what to do when therapy does not seem to be progressing, and how to end therapy well.Ā
