Description

Therapeutic conversations can be both effective and challenging. Our own narratives and assumptions can significantly impact how we engage with others. This book explores how self-reflexive practices can lead to more ethically responsible, collaborative and life-enhancing conversations in therapy. Drawing on Fran Hedges' extensive clinical experience, the book describes how self-reflexive practice can help therapists assess their personal resources and stories, and unpack their professional belief systems. Each chapter examines a single extended case study or focuses on a particular theme, such as language, emotion, or bodily responses, to offer a compelling blend of critical, conceptual and personal material. This practical book will appeal to trainee counsellors, psychotherapists and psychologists, as well as experienced mental health practitioners and supervisors looking for ways to invigorate and enhance their practice.
