An invaluable teaching text and clinical resource, this is a book about
how to do psychotherapy--how to apply the science of change to the
complexities of helping people develop new meanings in their lives.
Explaining constructivist principles and illuminating what a skilled
clinician actually does in day-to-day practice, Michael J. Mahoney shows
how to nurture the therapeutic relationship while implementing such
creative interventions as centering techniques, problem solving, pattern
work, meditation and embodiment exercises, drama and dream work, and
spiritual exploration. Appendices feature reproducible client forms,
handouts, and other useful materials.
