Paperback. What do you do as a therapist, teacher, doctor or manager when your client, student, patient or colleague says "It's like I'm hitting my head against a brick wall," "I've got a knot in my stomach" or "I'm looking for the right path to take"? "Metaphors in Mind" describes how to give individuals an opportunity to discover how their symbolic perceptions are organised, what needs to happen for these to change, and how they can develop as a result. Based on David Grove's pioneering therapeutic approach and use of Clean Language, Symbolic Modelling is an emergent, systemic and iterative way of facilitating the psychotherapeutic process. This comprehensive book covers the theory of metaphor, self-organising systems, symbolic modelling, the practice of Clean language, the five-stage therapeutic process, and includes three client transcripts. A new model of psychotherapy - a guide for facilitating personal development using the 'clean language' of David Grove with client-generated metaphors and symbols. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
