Change can be overwhelming. This accessible book showcases quick, low-intensity therapeutic strategies to help clients take small steps toward change--especially when they feel stuck. Craig Winston LeCroy draws on extensive clinical experience and innovative multidisciplinary research. The book describes ways that "nudges" as simple as a journal entry, a grounding exercise, a new habit, or a reframed thought can prompt subtle but meaningful shifts in emotions and behavior. Vivid case examples illustrate how microinterventions work and how to implement them, regardless of clinical problem or treatment approach.
