Mastering the Art of Psychotherapy ─ The Principles of Effective Psychological Change: Challenging the Boundaries of Self-expression

Mastering the Art of Psychotherapy: the principles of effective psychological change: challenging the boundaries of self-expression. This is a mechanics manual for the personality. It addresses the fundamentals of the human psyche and personality: how identity is formed, how trauma works, the nature and dynamism of psychological energy, the function and analysis of dreams, the shadow side of falling in love, but even more importantly, how to effectively diagnose and treat personality problems. This book is a complete manual on the practice of psychotherapy, principally designed for clinical professionals and graduate students, in order to improve diagnostic skills, develop treatment strategies, broaden therapeutic techniques, and further their understanding of the basics of human transformation. However, much of this book contains material of interest to anyone in therapy, or simply ready to transform their lives, improve their marriages and significant relationships, advance their spiritual practice, or seeking to reduce their psychological suffering and improve self-expression.
