Autorenporträt

Gillian is a Clinical Psychologist, person centred therapist and research supervisor. Passionate about the ethics and politics of life, relationships and therapy she loves writing and aims to bring academic thinking from various disciplines (predominantly counselling and psychotherapy, psychology, sociology and philosophy) together with clinical practice in an accessible way. Her initial interest in power in therapy led her to the relevance of politics and the socio-political context in therapy. In addition to reminding us that therapy occurs within a much wider context than the therapy dyad, issues of power also pointed within the person of the therapist to our own personal history, our values and beliefs and how these influence our ethical decisions. She also loves exploring these issues of relational dynamics by facilitating encounter groups.

Rezensionen

Gillian Proctor has produced an insightful and thought-provoking book that takes us to the heart of human relating. She makes values and ethics a central part of the therapeutic process and this is illustrated throughout by a range of vignettes that skilfully balnce theory with practice. It is a book that speaks to the soul.
