Psychodynamic Counselling in Action (2nd ed)

This text sets out the major aspects of the psychodynamic technique and shows how these can be applied, creatively and effectively, within counselling.

The author follows two clients - a man and a woman - through the psychodynamic counselling process, putting into context ideas such as defence mechanisms, resistance, transference and the psychodynamic understanding of personality development.

This second edition takes account of developments in therapeutic practices since the first edition was published.

The references and bibliography have also been enlarged.
