| book description |
This book explores how clients develop love for themselves and others, told through case studies from the therapy room integrated with attachment, neuroscience, and clinical experience. The book is not focused on any one therapy approach and instead sits in the 'integrative space' where all good therapists converge in practice.Its lessons are divided into two parts: the first covering exploring aspects of how modern individuals and communities think about love, and the ways in which recent research shows that this is changing. Â In the second part, the book explores how therapists have formulated love, detailing the mistakes, taboos, and progresses made, particularly in attachment research, evolutionary anthropology, and neuroscience. As such, Themes of Love in Counselling and Psychotherapy will be an invaluable tool for exploring how clients might establish the kind of compassionate self-interest which will help them grow through their varied experiences, and develop habits of reflection to support this.
