Listening Perspectives in Psychotherapy

Listening Perspectives in Psychotherapy by Hedges, Lawrence E.. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780876686188.

Various psychological approaches possess differential effectiveness in bringing into focus different aspects of the human developmental experience. The major psychological schools can thus be viewed as "Listening Perspectives" for grasping unique and private experience which is, to a greater or lesser extent, characteristic of various levels or stages of development of the human relatedness potential. This book illustrates four distinctly different styles of listening that have emerged in psychoanalysis. It will survey the contributions of many and explore the possibilities of each Listening Perspective as a separate mode of psychoanalytic inquiry.
