Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This volume represents a systematic attempt to map the various ways emotion influences the change process and to clarify the underlying mechanisms. A continuation of the editors' pioneering work, Emotion in Psychotherapy, this volume makes a significant contribution to the development of a trans-theoretical approach to affective change events. Viewing emotional experience as an active ingredient in, rather than a by-product of the change process, the book explores the ramifications of this understanding for the conduct of therapy. Included are detailed descriptions of therapist-client interactions as well as clinical transcripts that vividly illustrate the change proccess.
