Evocativeness

by Stephen A. Appelbaum

"In this work, Dr. Stephen A. Appelbaum shows how feelings and ideas can be powerfully communicated and experienced in the session by both patient and therapist. As therapists become more evocative, they open up as new realm of vividness, intimacy, and understanding in the therapeutic relationship.". "Abundant clinical examples of successful and less successful evocative interventions round out this volume. In poetic prose, Dr. Appelbaum has given us a way to access affective resonance and deep intimacy - healing love - the critical yet intangible ingredient in all successful therapy."--BOOK JACKET.
