Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a narrative of a case as presented in supervision. Every week the therapist recounts her sessions with her young patient, a girl of six named Cleo, who is suffering from intense fear. The fear is invasive and unrelenting and the little girl is engaged in a desperate struggle to master it, but she fails over and over again. Throughout these chapters, the theoretical framework remains the fundamental gauge and guide-the compass of the treatment. The therapist's growing ability to harness the richness and organization it provides is shared with the reader.
