Therapeutic Communication, Second Edition: Knowing What to Say When
Autor Paul L. Wachtelen Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 iun 2011
Destinată nivelului de master, doctorat și practicii profesionale avansate, această a doua ediție a lucrării Therapeutic Communication reprezintă o resursă fundamentală pentru clinicienii care doresc să rafineze impactul intervențiilor lor verbale. Observăm că Paul L. Wachtel nu se rezumă la o simplă actualizare, ci reconstruiește dialogul terapeutic prin prisma a două decenii de evoluții în cercetare, oferind un cadru în care pragmatismul întâlnește rigoarea teoretică. Cartea explorează de ce anumite formulări facilitează vindecarea, în timp ce altele, cu același conținut informațional, pot deveni contraproductive.
Structura este organizată meticulos în două părți: fundamentarea teoretică și aplicațiile clinice. În prima secțiune, autorul analizează convergența dintre abordările psihodinamice, cognitiv-comportamentale și sistemice, adăugând un capitol esențial despre implicațiile cercetării atașamentului în cabinet. Partea a doua oferă îndrumări concrete despre echilibrul dintre afirmare și schimbare, utilizarea sugestiei și riscurile auto-dezvăluirii terapeutului.
Comparabil cu Psychodynamic Therapy de Richard F. Summers în ceea ce privește rigoarea clinică, volumul de față se distinge prin modelul original al „psihodinamicii ciclice”. Această perspectivă, dezvoltată de autor și în lucrarea Cyclical Psychodynamics and the Contextual Self, pune accent pe cercurile vicioase și virtuoase în care se regăsesc pacienții. Spre deosebire de manualele care se limitează la o singură școală de gândire, Therapeutic Communication funcționează ca un pod între orientări, oferind un limbaj comun pentru explorarea colaborativă.

Recenzii
"Paul Wachtel is among the very few teachers and theorists of psychotherapy whose writing has an immediate, direct, and powerful impact on my clinical practice. I have long used and recommended this excellent text and am delighted to see the revised second edition, which incorporates recent developments across the range of therapeutic approaches. Wachtel does not speak in generalities or abstractions; rather, he moves easily among theoretical formulations, research findings, and their practical application, illustrating his principles with numerous recognizable examples. He examines in great detail the nuances and subtleties of what you say to patients, how you say it, and the relational context within which you convey your therapeutic messages. This book is essential reading for practicing therapists of all persuasions. I can't wait to start reading it with my students."--Lewis Aron, PhD, Director, Postdoctoral Program in Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis, New York University
"The wisdom and experience of a creative therapist are reflected in every chapter. As the subtitle indicates, it's what you say and when you say it that determines what a patient hears. Novice and experienced therapists of any theoretical orientation will find this book to be of significant value. It is clear that therapy is not simply about techniques--it's about relations that work. This book shows you how and why that is true."--Robert L. Leahy, PhD, Director, American Institute for Cognitive Therapy; Department of Psychiatry, Weill Cornell Medical College

"I have used Therapeutic Communication in my graduate seminars, and students have been consistently appreciative of its combination of theoretical rationale and detailed examples (the 'why' and the 'how-to'). This combination has made it possible for students from all therapeutic orientations to apply the book's insights to their clinical thinking and practice. Wachtel's formulation of 'cyclical psychodynamics' is consistent with perpetuating factors, awareness of which is critically important for effective psychotherapy of any school."--Steven A. Kvaal, PhD, Department of Psychology, Roosevelt University
"Students in my master's-level class in Interpersonal Communication have consistently found Therapeutic Communication to be the best text to help them understand how change and growth take place through dialogue and disclosure. Wachtel seamlessly interweaves theory and skills, explicating not just one theory but several, in some of the clearest writing in the field. The chapters on building on patients' strengths and therapeutic communication with couples are a 'must' for practitioners. The focused session transcripts are a valuable teaching tool; the extensive references and detailed index are also significant assets of the book."--Delores Friesen, PhD, LMFT, Professor Emerita of Pastoral Counseling, Fresno Pacific Biblical Seminary
