Issues of concern to psychotherapists
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
An eloquent and thoughtful dissection of theoretical concerns of contemporary psychotherapists written just before the explosion of antidepressant medications that occurred in the 1990s. The book is written primarily for practitioners. In some of his explications (especially about the role of empathy) he tortures himself and his reader in trying to define his position. But this is more than made up for by the deeper understanding the book provides of issues every practitioner confronts and the entertaining case histories including his own.
