The Personal Is Political: Stories of Difference and Psychotherapy

Angebote / Angebote:

Psychological and psychotherapeutic practice faces a dilemma. No matter how much the practitioner learns, no matter how knowledgeable they become about human behaviour, their clients are always unique, ever-changing, subjective beings. Written by an eminent psychologist and psychotherapist, The Personal is Political explores how therapists can address the key issues of ‘difference’ when working with clients. Since the times of Freud and Rogers, psychotherapy and counselling has relied heavily on the use of case studies to help understand issues. By taking a pluralistic approach and interweaving theory with a range of clinical stories offering insights into specific issues, client populations and therapeutic contexts, this book will enable readers to develop context-sensitive practice. The Personal is Political is the perfect companion for students and trainees in applied psychology, psychotherapy and counseling. It will equally appeal to newly qualified counselors, and more experienced professionals looking to develop their practice.
