Existential Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques: 100 Key Points

Autor Susan Iacovou, Karen Weixel-Dixon
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 apr 2015
Less of an orientation and more a way of understanding the challenges of being human, existential therapy draws on rich and diverse philosophical traditions and ways of viewing the world. Traditionally it has been seen as difficult to summarise and comprehend and the air of mystery surrounding existential ideas has been exacerbated by the dense language often used by philosophers and practitioners.Existential Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniquesprovides a comprehensive and accessible guide to a fascinating and exciting body of knowledge, and the therapeutic approach it informs. Divided into five parts the topics covered include:
Existentialism – inception to present day
Theoretical assumptions
Existential phenomenological therapy in practice
Ethics and existential therapy
Bringing it all together
Existential Therapy: 100 Key Points and Techniques will be essential reading for all trainee and qualified counsellors, psychotherapists, psychologists and psychiatrists who want to use the wisdom of existential ideas in their work with clients. It will also benefit clients and potential clients who want to find out how existential ideas and existential therapy can help them explore what it means to be alive.

Recenzii

"A very quick guide to existential therapy, which will help you get your head around some complex philosophical terms and issues in a clear and straightforward way". – Professor Emmy van Deurzen, Principal of the New School of Psychotherapy and Counselling.
"As a clinician who has taught existential therapy to mental health professionals and graduate students for the past twenty-five years, I have long wished for a book that would provide both an introduction and a sophisticated, non-simplistic look at existential therapy. This is not an easy task, considering the complexity of existential philosophy and the varieties of existential therapy. Susan Iacovou and Karen Weixel-Dixon have contributed just such a book. Well-written, accessible, and not full of philosophical jargon, their book makes the sometimes esoteric world of existential therapy accessible to a wide range of readers. Anyone wanting to gain an overview of existential theory and therapy would do well to start with this book. It can be returned to again and again as one gains a greater knowledge of the field and wishes to review its key concepts and practices. I would recommend it to both beginners and experienced therapists of all orientations. It should also prove to be of interested to general readers seeking an alternative to the scientistic technique-driven approaches that often dominate contemporary psychotherapy." - Betty Cannon, Ph.D., author of Sartre and Psychoanalysis, Director of the Boulder Psychotherapy Institute (Colorado), & founder of Applied Existential Psychotherapy (AEP).
"A super contribution to the field. Comprehensive, expertly-informed and laying out existential thought and practice in a highly accessible, engaging, and applicable way." – Mick Cooper, Professor of Counselling Psychology, University of Roehampton, author of 'Existential psychotherapy and counselling: Contributions to a pluralistic practice' (Sage, 2015).
