Emotion-Focused Counselling Volume 1: A Practitioner's Guide

What do we do as practitioners? How do we respond? When do we intervene? These are just a few of the questions that practitioners of Emotion-Focused work struggle with. The Emotion-Focused approach is one of the most popular in humanistic psychology, and the subject has been well documented and researched. However, as practitioners we need practical information to guide us through using the protocols. We want to know how to respond appropriately within the approach in a way that is sensitive and respectful of every client. This book does just that. Based on the author's forty years of clinical experience, this is an outline of the process of counselling and a step-by-step guide to working verbally and creatively within the Emotion-Focused approach.
