Synopsis

This book aims to take the mystery out of the process of psychotherapy. Dr.Gottschalk encourages his readers to apply psychotherapeutic techniques on themselves in order to become faimiliary with how they feel and how they may change ways of thinking, feeling and behaving. Dr.Gottschalk presents the factors to consider in selecting the type of self-psychotherapy to be used; personal preference and aptitudes; the nature of the problem(s) to be treated; the degree of change wanted; whether past, present, or future is involved; and whether the goals are short or long-range. There are different types of self-psychotherapies that one can use. The author's major concentration is on the psychoanalytic therapies. He also covers other approaches, such as meditation, religion, behaviour modification and hypnosis.
