A book for counsellors, psychotherapists, and psychologists that combines the most influential schools of therapy into a single person-centred model
Most counselling and psychotherapy books present therapy models as separate and disconnected theories and practices. Integrative Person-Centred Counselling: The combined model of counselling and psychotherapy sketches the family tree of counselling and shows how different psychotherapies come from the same roots. The book argues for the therapeutic relationship as the foundation to all psychotherapies and takes each of the most influential therapy models, from psychoanalysis to cognitive behavioural therapy, attachment theory to family therapy, and combines them into a bigger picture: an integrative person-centred counselling model.
Written by a highly qualified lecturer, author, and psychotherapist, Integrative Person-Centred Counselling: The combined model of counselling and psychotherapy teaches you to integrate therapy models into your practice, including:
Humanistic and Person-Centred Counselling Psychoanalysis and Psychodynamic Theory Jungian Analysis and Attachment Theory Object Relations and Existential Psychotherapy CBT and Gestalt Therapy Systemic Psychotherapy and Family Therapy
Written in clear and succinct language, Integrative Person-Centred Counselling: The combined model of counselling and psychotherapy is an essential reference for therapists and trainees seeking insight into modern integrative psychotherapy and imaginative ways to transform their therapeutic practice.
