About this title

Synopsis

Blending the knowledge of contemporary psychoanalysis with the wisdom of Buddhist view, Marjorie Schuman's book Mindfulness-Informed Relational Psychotherapy and Psychoanalysis: Inquiring Deeply explains in clear language how the experience of Self and Other is involved in emotional pain and relational suffering. Written for the psychotherapist and layperson alike, 'Inquiring Deeply' explores how mindfulness can be incorporated into psychotherapy as an aspect of self-reflection rather than a cognitive behavioral technique.  Such deep self-inquiry breathes space into problems in a way which allows them to resolve.
