Book Synopsis

In this book, Lynne E. Angus and Leslie S. Greenberg present a groundbreaking, empirically based model that integrates working with narrative and emotion processes in emotion-focused therapy (EFT). Individual chapters describe how the interaction between emotion and narrative creates a constantly evolving sense of self how clinicians can address both narrative and emotion processes to help clients create more adaptive, empowering meanings and sense of self and the importance of a strong therapeutic alliance. Engaging, in-depth case studies illustrate how the model can be applied to treatment of depression and emotional trauma.
