Theodor Itten

Opis

Tao of Psychotherapy brings together a diverse and impressive collection of work from over 40 years of clinical and psychoanalytic practice. At its core, effective and successful therapy is the upright, honest and authentic presence of the therapist. Playfulness, experience based on street wise behaviour, placed within the cosmology of myth and the dream-world, is elegantly explored in these pages. Courage pared with facing the pain of suffering, anxiety and feelings, one's own sense of self-worth, self con dence, and sense of responsibility are fed by the truth of one's feelings. The finale of therapy is in no longer being ashamed, for who we are.
