A Practical Guide to Cultivating Therapeutic Presence Ebook (tebook.shop)

A Practical Guide to Cultivating Therapeutic PresenceBeing fully present with clients can be challenging for health practitioners, given the emotional demands of their intensive work combined with any number of physical and mental distractions, which can make it difficult to establish a healing therapeutic alliance. In this practical guide, author Shari Geller translates empirical research — including neurophysiological evidence — into simple exercises that clinicians of all theoretical persuasions can use to set a pre-session foundation for presence and develop presence throughout therapy. Geller also emphasizes therapist self-care with practices that clinicians can implement in their daily lives, which ultimately translates into more effective therapy.ISBN: 9781433827167, 1433827166
