Existential Therapies 2nd Edition
by Mick Cooper (Author) - December 14, 2016

What does it mean to practice therapy in an existential way? What are the different existential approaches? What are their strengths and limitations?
Focusing on practical, face-to-face work with clients, the book introduces students to six existential therapies, highlighting areas of commonality and difference, and discusses key figures and their contributions, including Yalom, van Deurzen, Spinelli, Frankl and Laing. It outlines the critical perspectives and key debates, and presents implications for practice, reflection and further reading.
