Purchase options and add-ons

The therapeutic relationship is essential to positive outcomes of psychotherapy. In this book, Shari Geller and Leslie Greenberg argue that therapeutic presence is the fundamental underlying quality of the therapeutic relationship and, hence, effective therapy. Therapeutic presence is the state of having one's whole self in the encounter with a client by being completely in the moment on a multiplicity of levels-physically, emotionally, cognitively, and spiritually. Present therapists become aware of both their own experience and that of their client through bodily sensations and emotions, and this awareness helps them to connect deeply with the client. Therapeutic presence is not a replacement for technique, but rather a foundational therapeutic stance that supports deep listening and understanding of the client in the moment. Geller and Greenberg present their empirically based model of therapeutic presence that integrates three aspects of the concept: how present therapists prepare for presence both pre-session and in general life, what activities therapists engage in when being therapeutically present, and what in-session presence feels like. The authors also provide a therapeutic presence theory of relationship based on research and clinical wisdom. Importantly, because presence is a learnable state that can be cultivated with practice and commitment, the authors infuse the book with practical, experiential exercises for cultivating presence.

    This book was purchased for my masters degree program for the healing presence class. I enjoyed this book and will still reference this in the future even after I finish my degree program as it will apply directly to health and wellness coaching. Very valuable lessons on how listening to patients, crest mutual respect goes a long way to enabling a true healing environment. Great read.

    Reviewed in Canada on 10 May 2017

    It was a good read but redundant throughout the books - repetitive with content but reinforced the importance of being present with the client with helpful resources to apply to a clinical setting.
