Introduction to Psychotherapy : An Outline of Psychodynamic Principles And Practice

Descripción

For those entering it for the first time, psychotherapy can be bewildering territory. Claims and counter-claims by those committed to a particular approach create the need for a balanced appraisal of what the approaches have in common, as well as their distinguishing features. The first edition of Introduction to Psychotherapy proved a welcome answer to this need and quickly achieved an established position on the reading lists of many counselling and psychotherapy courses. This revised and expanded second edition takes into account further developments in the profession over the last ten years, and its bibliographical material has been brought completely up to date. It is an invaluable reference book for any professional working in the mental health field and an introduction for anyone with an interest in psychotherapy.
