Description: This book , written in 2001, is an introduction to  Psychotherapy in New Zealand. The book challenges traditional views and argues for a New Zealand based psychotherapy to be built from a cultural foundation. The book questions the assumptions that psychotherapy should be focused on psychological concepts alone and is critical of the practice of adhering to specific modalities and treatment models. The isolation of health professionals and the lack of integration in health services is replaced with ideas for promoting a holistic approach to individual health.
