Opis

A significant contribution to the field of integration in psychotherapy
Maria Gilbert (CHECK)
This is a book to be read and re-read as part of the journey of discovery that we are all engaged in as practitioners and as human beings
Helen Cowie, from the foreword
Psychotherapy is an area that has seen huge growth in prominence and practice. The range of theoretical schools that have emerged means that practitioners are striving to amalgamate and synthesize new approaches and theories.
"New Approaches to Integration in" "Psychotherapy" provides a snapshot of the latest theoretical and clinical developments in the field of integration. Eleanor O'Leary and Mike Murphy bring together contributors from a range of theoretical backgrounds, who reflect on their experiences with integration, critique existing research and provide a thorough overview of the historical development of psychotherapy itself. The book is divided into three sections, covering the following subjects in depth:
- Frameworks and Theoretical Integrations
- Professional and Clinical Integrations and Special Populations
- Issues for Professional Consideration
This book will be welcomed by anyone interested in investigating integrative approaches to psychotherapy. In particular, it will have direct relevance to academics involved in training and research on psychotherapy, psychotherapists, counselors and clinical psychologists.
