A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Examining the actual moment-to-moment process of therapy, this volume provides specific ways for therapists to engender effective movement, particularly in those difficult times when nothing seems to be happening. The book concentrates on the ongoing client therapist relationship and ways in which the therapist's responses can stimulate and enable a client's capacity for direct experiencing and "focusing." Throughout, the client therapist relationship is emphasized, both as a constant factor and in terms of how the quality of the relationship is manifested at specific times. The author also shows how certain relational responses can turn some difficulties into moments of relational therapy.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book addresses specific ways in which a therapist can engender the therapeutic process, especially with clients with whom nothing effective is happening. Working with transcripts of actual sessions, the author examines each client statement to show where the therapeutic movement has taken place, and each therapist response to show how it did or did not help bring about a kind of direct bodily experiencing called "focusing". The author shows how the therapist, working from any therapeutic orientation, can turn difficulties into moments of rational therapy. Most importantly, he shows how whatever arises inwardly in the client is respected and pursued.
