Dalla quarta di copertina

With roots deeply embedded in Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and positive psychology, techniques of imagery therapy are increasingly recognized as an invaluable option in the therapist's toolkit. The Positive Power of Imagery presents the theory and practice of imagery therapy as a creative intervention that challenges therapists to learn the skills for creatively designing personalized exercises to match clients' specific needs, problems, and personalities.

After presenting an overview of CBT, skills-directed therapy, and positive psychology concepts, therapist and international lecturer Tammie Ronen provides a grounded theory for applying techniques of imagery therapy, along with guidance for constructing a practical course of therapy that leads toward well-defined goals. Case illustrations and guidelines regarding imagery and metaphors in therapy are presented throughout the book for use in sessions with both adult clients and children. Therapists will gain the insights and necessary skills to best utilize and incorporate imagery in their own practice. The Positive Power of Imagery offers deep insights into the innovative ways that imagery therapy can harness client imagination in CBT and related therapy treatments.
