Synopsis

If therapy is a relational process, it takes a person on the therapist’s end. The goal of this book is to capture the therapist’s evolving sense of self as it is shaped by our experiences as active participants in a creative interaction. The essays in this book are first-person accounts, by eleven therapists, of some “Aha!” moments when they got to understand themselves better and to understand better why they do what they do.Essays by: Cheryl Dolinger Brown, Mary J. Giuffra, Marianne Gunther, Lou Hagood, Claire Haiman, Robin Kappy, Linda Marks, Merle Molofsky, Marjorie Rand, Susan Rudnick, and Claire Beth Steinberger. PRAISE FOR THIS BOOK: "The stories in Defining Moments For Therapists capture beautifully the potential for self-transformation when mindful attention is paid to process in therapy." –Arnold Mindell, Founder of Process Oriented Psychology, Author of Dreambody "Defining Moments For Therapists is a clear, well-written volume on the creativity of the psychotherapist’s inner dynamics. This important subject is rarely approached in a concrete way, which is why this volume is so valuable. We can see, from an inside perspective, how psychotherapists explore new roads, new methods, and accommodate to the patients’ needs without losing their own identity. The introduction and afterword written by the editors provide a useful context that gives coherence to a volume written by such a wide variety of therapists: It is about embodied interpersonal psychology, in which a major tool is how the therapists’ affective and cognitive dynamics resonate with their patients. Their style is clear and articulate, with no professional jargon to obscure the depth of their vision." –Michael C. Heller, Author of Body Psychotherapy: history, concepts & methods, New York: W.W. Norton
