Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy

Examining the actual moment-to-moment process of therapy, this volume provides specific ways for therapists to engender effective movement, particularly in those difficult times when nothing seems to be happening. Unprecedented in its attention to detail, the book concentrates on the ongoing client–therapist relationship and ways in which the therapist's responses can stimulate and enable a client's capacity for direct experiencing and "focusing."
