Title: The complete guide to experiential psychotherapy
Description: At last, one resource offers a complete guide to the experiential philosophy, theory, and model of human beings. The Complete Guide to Experiential Psychotherapy is the culmination of Dr. Alvin Mahrer's four decades of pioneering work to sculpt out the conceptual foundations of an experiential theory and model of psychology, and to create an experiential psychotherapy that is practitioner-friendly and allows creative growth and change.

Innovative in its approach and style, this timely book offers a thorough overview of an experiential psychotherapy which enables the client to become a qualitatively new person, free of bad feelings.

This experiential approach represents a dramatic alternative to other philosophies of science, models of personality, and modes of therapy. In this groundbreaking volume, Dr. Mahrer challenges the most cherished truths, basic foundations, and accepted pillars in the field, and lays out a radical new direction for the field.

Unique in its detailed coverage, this comprehensive manual gives the clinicians step-by-step guidelines to the working practice of experiential psychotherapy. Therapists will learn to apply Dr. Mahrer's innovative four-step process of experiential therapy to facilitate a powerful systematic transformation.

Using vivid clinical examples, this timely manual shows practitioners how to maximize the effectiveness of each session, while respecting the client's pace and maintaining sensitivity to his or her readiness and willingness to change.

Covering everything from the goals, aims, objectives, and directions of therapy, to the way the therapist and client interact with one another, to how to listen and what to listen for in each session - this trailblazing volume will change the way you think about, and practice, psychotherapy.
