Existential-Humanistic Psychotherapy in Action
by James Bugental
Existential-Humanistic Psychotherapy in Action shows James Bugental, the legendary clinician and teacher, conducting two actual psychotherapy sessions with the same client.
Existential-Humanistic Psychotherapy in Action shows this legendary clinician and teacher conducting two actual psychotherapy sessions with the same client. Witness Bugental put into practice the concepts he has written about in numerous classic texts and over 100 journal articles and chapters:• Facilitating client and therapist presence
• Working with resistance (to fuller living, not just to therapy)
• Balancing confrontation with support
• Reinforcing client subjectivity as fertile ground for true depth work
• Guiding clients into the search process
Each session is followed by a thoughtful group discussion with Dr. Bugental; further insight is added when the client shares her reflections. The depth and sensitivity of Dr. Bugental's approach are such that you'll want to study them again and again — they are the perfect training videos for beginning and experienced therapists alike.
What therapists are saying…
You may be interested to know that this video was the beginning of psychotherapy.net! Victor Yalom, the founder, had the privilege of studying with Dr. Bugental for 10 years. He recognized his work as that of a true master, and felt it needed to be recorded on video, especially as Bugental was 80 years old at the time of the filming (unfortunately he suffered a stroke soon thereafter, and died several years later). We are pleased that we successfully captured his brilliance and are able to offer it to the therapeutic community. Given the newfound interest in mindfulness, it is worth noting that Bugental had been advocating and instructing in the importance of therapist and client presence for several decades. After this video was completed, one thing led to another, and psychotherapy.net was born. And the rest is history!
