| Summary |
On Becoming a Psychotherapist explores how psychotherapists develop as practitioners through both professional training and the training that can only be oblained through personal experience Drawing on the expertise of acknowledged leaders in the field each chapter examines a particular set of personal experiences or educational pursuits that impacts psychotherapis development and practice. Among those considered are the relevant life events of psychotherapists that occur both prior to undertaking clinical work and as their careers evolve; the importance of supervision and mentoring, the contribution of one's personal treatment experiences, the incorporation of research findings into one's therapeutic approach; and the socio-economic and cullural contexts that influence therapist development Shedding light on how these components are effectively organized and integrated into professional practice, this book addresses current controversies that surround what constitutes the optimal set of experiences and characteristics for the developing psychotherapist. The result is a vital resource for directors of training, clinical supervisors, and psychotherapists interested in understanding how and why they have become the clinicians they are today. --Book Jacket |
