Riassunto

Benefitting from over 13 years of new research, this second edition of Helping Clients Forgive, now retitled Forgiveness Therapy, updates the pioneering work of Enright and Fitzgibbons. The significant development of Forgiveness Therapy and greater understanding of the role of excessive anger in mental health disorders make this book a vital tool for clinicians.

Featuring new chapters focused on the lasting legacy of those who enter forgiveness therapy and on forgiveness education for children and adolescents, this book describes the approach’s philosophical roots and includes new case studies, new empirical evaluations, and new measurement techniques.
