ReviewsBound for the reading list of any higher education course relating to the psyche, Cooper's ability to cover so much in 250 pages is impressive....This feels like a work of great respect, to examine the principles mushrooming in an increasingly busy and tetchy field, to remind us that resources are ours to use, to tailor to the person before us, as we attempt to witness, reflect and even assist., He offers a framework of directionality that is clear, concise and thought provoking. The directional arc encourages practitioners to reflect on where they meet the client, and Cooper plots various schools of therapy across it, mapping a clear concept of integration...In a seemingly ever-more divisive world, Cooper presents a worthy contribution to the field., Mick Cooper offers a new vision of therapeutic integration in which directionality- the forward-moving, active quality of being human - is the unifying principle between different therapeutic orientations and the wider socio-political field ...in the search to help clients achieve their goals.

SynopsisHow can therapists integrate theories and practices from across the psychological therapies? This book presents a framework for understanding distress and change that can unite different orientations, along with sociopolitical perspectives. Its starting point is that therapy aims to help clients move towards the things they most deeply want. It shows how the actualisation of these 'directions' leads to greater well-being, and how this can be brought about through the development of internal and external synergies. Using in-depth cases, the book provides detailed guidance on how this framework can be applied. After reading this book, you'll feel better equipped to understand, and work with, your clients' directions--tailoring the therapy to their unique wants., How can therapists integrate theories and practices from across the psychological therapies?
