    • Therapeutic Encounter : A Cross-Modality Approach, Hardcover by Bott, David; Howard, Pam, ISBN 0857022326, ISBN-13 9780857022325, Brand New, Free shipping in the US

      Bott (studies in counseling and psychotherapy, U. of Brighton) and Howard, a psychotherapist, presents a cross-modality approach to psychotherapy, emphasizing psychodynamic and humanistic approaches. They don't advocate a singular approach, nor does their pluralism demand a comprehensive knowledge of techniques and theories. Instead, it is about highlighting points of resistance or ambivalence and dilemmas when therapists can encounter the patient most effectively. Chapters focus on these moments, such as the refusal to participate in therapy, the struggle for control, emotional unavailability, the desire for love, and anxiety about remaining self-sufficient in the face of love. They conclude with a chapter reviewing the "safe emergency" that these moments in therapy constitute. Annotation ©2012 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
