ACTUELLEMENT ÉPUISÉ

The Compleat Therapist by Jeffrey A. Kottler (1991, Hardcover)

Most clients who seek help from psychotherapists do change and grow, no matter what type of therapy is used. Kottler analyzes the reasons. How can therapists practice so differently, yet achieve similar results? What makes a therapist effective? What do successful practitioners have in common? Jeffrey Kottler offers valuable insights into focusing the creative elements of therapy, and combines the most effective healing practices into one coherent framework. Using the stories of colleagues as well as his own rich experience, he identifies the traits of an effective therapist's repertoire. This is a book for therapists and clients alike who are struggling to understand the diversity of the therapeutic process.

Reviews
"Jeffrey Kottler has taken on a daunting challenge to examine the chaotic field of psychotherapy and abstract 'what works.' He makes his survey with wit, humility and clinical sophistication." --James F.T. Bugental, past president, California State Psychological Association "Addressed to therapists but of interest to clients as well....Kottler anticipates the discovery of an integrated theory of therapy that will connect the essence of diverse methodologies, much as Newton's discoveries unified pre-seventeenth-century theories of physics."
