Description
Contemplative Psychotherapy Essentials: Enriching Your Practice with Buddhist Psychology
This guide provides therapists with a deeper approach to client work, drawing on Buddhist psychological teachings to enhance their therapeutic repertoire. By incorporating simple Buddhist principles into their practice, clinicians can increase self-awareness and well-being in their clients.
Leading practitioner Karen Kissel Wegela explains the foundational concepts of contemplative psychotherapy and its specific clinical practices, providing guidance on how to apply these teachings in day-to-day therapy work. The book outlines five basic competencies that underlie all contemplative therapeutic practice, including being present, seeing clearly, recognizing differences, connecting with others, and acting skillfully.
