Relational Patterns, Therapeutic Presence
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-041-03759-0 (ISBN)
Containing work from the course of Richard Erskine’s career, this book provides an essential introduction to developmentally-based, relationally-focused integrative psychotherapy. The methods described are contact based, profoundly respectful, developmentally attuned, co-constructive, and intersubjective. Rather than a theoretical integration of therapeutic concepts and techniques, Erskine focusses on the concept of internal integration—a convergence of physiology, affect, and cognition so that behaviour is by choice of the current contacts, and not simulated by fear, compulsion, or conditioning. This Classic Edition includes a new prelude by the author.
Written in a conversational style, Relational Patterns, Therapeutic Presence will be essential reading for psychotherapists in practice and in training.
Richard G. Erskine, PhD, is a licensed clinical psychologist, licensed psychoanalyst, certified transactional analyst, and group psychotherapist. He specialized in the treatment of clients with early affect confusion, dissociation, obsession, narcissism, and schizoid processes.
