Now, Peter Lomas has expanded and updated it, but without altering it's fundamental character. The book is essentially an introduction to psychotherapy based on the belief that therapy is best considered as a personal undertaking in which the way of being with a patient is paramount.  \u003cp\u003eIt is, therefore, a practice rather than a theory, and a moral pursuit rather than a technical one. Because the author has been deeply influenced by Freud the ideas of psychoanalysis have a prominent position in the text but the book is not about psychoanalysis or any other school of thought. It is an encouragement to readers to see professional work as an extension, in a particular setting, of how we try to help a troubled person in everyday life. Ordinary language is the best and most subtle way of describing what happens in a therapeutic encounter. Special language may be useful at certain points but should never dominate the picture as, unhappily, so often happens. In this second edition, amongst various changes, Dr. Lomas has focussed more on the needs of those who are in the process of learning psychotherapy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction.  \u003cp\u003eLearning The Practice of Psychotherapy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Desirable attributes of The Psychotherapist.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFreud and The Analytic Attitude.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eInterpretation.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Past in The Present.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Moral Nature of Psychotherapy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDependence.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eConfusion.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSeduction in Therapy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eResponsibility.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIs Psychotherapy real?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOrdinariness.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCultivating Intuition.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSuggested Reading.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychology%20%5BJM%5D%22\"\u003eJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52460701188376,"sku":"9781861564542","price":42.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781861564542.jpg?v=1785458978","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/cultivating-intuition-a-personnel-introduction-to-psychotherapy-paperback-softback-9781861564542","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
