Summary |
"In this book, Drs. Kirk Schneider and Orah Krug show how existential-humanistic psychotherapy provides effective treatment in contemporary psychological practice. Drs. Schneider and Krug discuss numerous cases that will allow the reader to understand how this approach, rooted in philosophy, is also very practical. The authors highlight how the struggles of existence are often at the root of so much of our psychological suffering. Both authors use their extensive experience to provide a clear and concise delineation of the theory and practice of existential-humanistic therapy. This is an approach that integrates not only existential and humanistic theories but also strategies and techniques from other contemporary approaches. As their case studies unfold, Drs. Schneider and Krug help the reader to gain familiarity with this theory, how it looks in practice, and how integration occurs."--Preface.
