Product Description
Review
"This engaging, user-friendly introduction to relational psychotherapy skillfully integrates the various relational perspectives in contemporary psychoanalysis into a practical and courageously personal account. DeYoung's understanding of relationality is rich, complex, and nuanced. I will recommend this book enthusiastically to my students, supervisees, and colleagues." -- Donna M. Orange, Faculty and Supervising Analyst, Institute for the Psychoanalytic Study of Subjectivity; Author, Emotional understanding: Studies in Psychoanalytic Epistemology
Product Description
This primer advances the understanding of this comprehensive, reliable model of treatment as it follows the trajectory of the therapy process from beginning to end. Using clear language and warm human terms, experienced therapist and teacher Patricia DeYoung addresses the challenges and rewards of doing relational therapy. She presents relational therapy against a wide range of contemporary psychotherapies, weaving a working synthesis of self psychology, intersubjective theory, various psychoanalytically informed developmental theories, relational psychoanalysis and feminist self-in-relation theory.

Format:Paperback
This book is one of the core texts for the introduction to Psychoanalysis module of my Post Graduate Diploma course. I am glad I bought it in order to read the other chapters around the required ones. The author uses a single question raised by a client and describes how each therapeutic format would deal with it. She manages to impart an experiential understanding of what each approach to helping a person would imply. A course colleague and I, both of us from outside the English culture, agreed that the book was very accessible in language and content. We are glad to have bought the book and I feel that I will refer to it throughout my studies.

Wonderful!
19 Oct 2011
Format:Paperback
It is a fabulous introduction to intersubjectivity and feminist theory within a relational model... It is written in plain English that is approachable even by the lay reader with no exposure to clinical material. The author brings excellent examples that offer a realistic perspective to offering therapy- the successes and the failures that come with the exploration of the mind.
