A uniquely practical guide and widely adopted text, this book shows
precisely what therapists can say at key moments to enhance the
process of healing and change. Paul Wachtel explains why some
communications in therapy are particularly effective, while others
that address essentially the same content may actually be
countertherapeutic. He offers clear and specific guidelines for how to
ask questions and make comments in ways that facilitate collaborative
exploration and promote change. Illustrated with vivid case examples,
the book is grounded in an integrative theory that draws from features
of psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, systemic, and experiential
approaches. New to This Edition * Reflects nearly 20 years of advances
in the field and refinements of the author's approach. *Broader
audience: in addition to psychodynamic therapists,
cognitive-behavioral therapists and others will find specific,
user-friendly recommendations. *Chapter on key developments and
convergences across different psychotherapeutic approaches. *Chapter
on the therapeutic implications of attachment theory and research. See
also Wachtel's Relational Theory and the Practice of Psychotherapy,
which explores a new direction in psychoanalytic thought that can
expand and deepen clinical practice.
