The area of psychotherapy in Ireland has grown considerably in recent years. It is a diverse and complex area with many different approaches and treatments available.In this revised volume, leading practitioners of psychotherapy, working in Ireland, offer an overview of the approach or school of psychotherapy which is within their competence. They also offer an indication of their individual perspective or style and, in some cases, of the way they combine, or are informed by, different approaches within their practice. The essays are written in clear, non-technical language and all case studies are set in an Irish context. The book will be of interest to members of the caring professions, to students and practitioners of psychotherapy and counselling, to public policy makers and to those who wish to avail of psychotherapy for themselves.
