Overview of the Genetic-Phenomenological Approach

This book presents a genetic-phenomenological approach of existential psychotherapy, articulating its theoretical underpinnings with principles supported by scientific evidence and concluding with clinical examples.

Relational Stances and Therapeutic Interventions

The volume also offers a clear perspective about the relational stances and the therapeutic interventions of existential psychotherapy and how both can be combined and applied in the clinical practice.

Research and Principles

It begins with an overview and update on psychotherapy research, from which a set of therapeutic principles are drawn.

Theoretical Foundations

It then conceptualizes the theoretical underpinnings of the genetic-phenomenological approach, based on three main aspects: inner-time consciousness, the experiential self, and the passive synthesis theory.

Practical Applications

It concludes with practical examples of case conceptualizations and clinical cases.

Target Audience

This work is particularly relevant for trainees, students, and professionals of clinical psychology and psychotherapy, but also other mental health professionals that work in the area of the psychological and psychotherapeutic interventions.
