Unlock the emotional roadblocks that can inhibit or interfere with
the success of therapy

Videowork is the therapeutic process in which therapists assign
popular films that relate to core issues of ongoing therapy.
Clients are instructed to do their "homework" between sessions and
prepare for discussion in future sessions. Rent Two Films and Let's
Talk in the Morning explores how therapeutic work interwoven with
popular films enhances traditional therapy. This much-anticipated
revision provides an introduction to using movie rentals in therapy
and serves as a ready reference for therapists who want to assign
videos as homework.

Authors John and Jan Hesley address the dilemmas that you may face
when deciding when it is appropriate to assign a film, and offer
friendly guidance and detailed information on every aspect of using
films as tools in therapy.

In addition, this updated edition:

* Provides concise descriptions of dozens of popular videos and
shows how they can be used as therapy for specific therapeutic
needs (divorce, child abuse, substance abuse, etc.)

* Contains a revised organizational structure, covering therapy
topics based on patient issues frequently encountered in therapy,
including marital problems, parenting, job stress, abuse, and
emotional disorders

* Offers suggestions on selecting films, creating assignments, and
processing homework

* Provides newly released film reviews, along with 40 additional
films with brief descriptions, in the "Therapists' Film Reference"
