Description

The editors said about this book:Provocative Therapy, a style of psychotherapy developed by Frank Farrelly, will shock and provoke you as it challenges many traditional assumptions about the limits to be respected by professional communicators in the same provocative, earthy and humor-producing style that characterizes Provocative Therapy.This book is a rich source of examples with extensive commentary as it chronicles the adventurous, warm and humorous journey undertaken by Farrelly in his highly successful quest for tools. These tools have gained for him an ever-growing reputation as a highly effective and dramatic practitioner and teacher of his system of psychotherapy. These tools were forged in the experiences of more than 20 years of work both with the traditional “hardcore” institutionalized patients and with clients in private practice.
