Barriers Defences and Resistances
This book focuses on ways in which therapists can conceptualize barriers, defenses, and resistances in therapy, linking this with implications for therapeutic practice. As well as being of particular interest to counselors, counseling psychologists, and psychotherapists, the book will also be of value to professionals such as nurses and occupational therapists.
