This is a partial list of books I have read. Most were not useful to me. I find, to me, the authors blame clients, label them and are extremely condesceding:

Getting Started- Joel Koten
Termination in Psychotherapy - Joyce, Piper, Klein
Positive Endings in Psychotherapy- Steven Kramer
Terminating Therapy- Davis
Good enough Endings – Salberg
Endings in Clinical Practice -Walsh
Psychoanalytic Diagnosis - McWilliams
Being a Brainwise Therapist - Badenoch
Ariadne’s Thread -Cowan
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy - Ursono
The Talking Cure - Vaughan
How Psychotherapy Really Works - Gaylin
Psychodynamic Techniques – Maroda
Psychodynamic Therapy – Summers and Barber
Attachment in Psychotherapy-Wallin
Trauma and the Avoidant Client – Wallin
Will I Ever Be Good Enough – McBride
Affect Intolerance in Patient and Analyst - Coen
Modes of Therapeutic Action – M. Stark
The Gift of Therapy – Yalom
Between Therapist and Client: The New Relationship – Kahn
Shame and Guilt – Tangney
Shame in the Therapy Hour – Dearing and Tangney
Psychology of Shame – Kaufman
_______________

These are the only ones I have read so far that I found useful and where the author was not insufferable:

The Trauma Myth: The Truth About the Sexual Abuse of Children--and its Aftermath -Susan A. Clancy

In Session: The Bond Between Women and Their Therapists- Lott
Trauma – Herman

For Your Own Good – Miller
