In this seminal work, American psychiatrist Irvin Yalom finds the essence of existential psychotherapy and gives it a coherent structure, synthesizing its historical background, core tenets, and usefulness to the practice.
Bestselling writer and psychotherapist Irvin D. Yalom puts himself on the couch in a “candid, insightful” (Abraham Verghese) memoir.
In this completely updated sixth edition, Dr. Yalom and Dr. Leszcz draw on a decade of new research on group psychotherapy as well as their broad clinical wisdom and expertise.
A radically honest statement about the difficulties of human life, but also a celebration of some of the finest fruits — love, family, friendship — it can offer.
Readers of Dr. Yalom's clinical texts will be intrigued by the fictional entries; general readers will gain a greater understanding of and appreciation for the practice of psychotherapy.
This essential book for front-line clinicians offers new ways of conceptualizing the techniques of group therapy for use on acute wards.
