Positive Family Therapy : The Family as Therapist PDF
by Nossrat Peseschkian
- Information
Description
The author's principal aim is to win over the patient through the development of the "positive" aspects of his psychopathology-a concern the significance of which I have also discovered, especially in schizophrenic therapy.
It is in this specific sense that Peseschkian speaks of "positive" psychotherapy.
His model is a notable synthesis of psychodynamic and behavior-therapeutic elements, making an essential contribution to unified relationships within psychotherapy.
In this way Peseschkian is attempting not to directly confront the patient's resistances.
The consultation takes place in a loving way through allusions to poetry, proverbs and oriental fairy tales and myths, to which Peseschkian, as a Persian, has direct access.
His ability to offer his patient a great treasure of handed-down wisdom knows no bounds.
Anyone who has personally experi- enced the author's therapeutic enthusiasm and optimism will understand why this method of short psychotherapeutic procedure is highly successful in its effects.
Professor Gaetano Benedetti, M. D.
