This important book addresses specific ways in which therapists can engender the therapeutic process, especially with clients with whom nothing effective is happening. In actual transcripts, the author examines each client statement to show where therapeutic movement has taken place, and each therapist response to show how to did or did not help to bring about direct experiencing, or focusing.
