Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the integration of various therapeutic strategies, the book delves into how early attachment experiences shape individuals' emotional development and self-perception. Wachtel emphasizes the importance of acknowledging neglected aspects of the self and employs a blend of psychodynamic, humanistic, systemic, and cognitive-behavioral approaches. By addressing the influences of race, class, and culture, the work provides valuable case studies that demonstrate how present-focused therapy can facilitate healing from past traumas.
