Using Relentless Empathy in the Therapeutic Relationship: Connecting with Challenging and Resistant Clients

By Anabelle Bugatti

Book Overview

With a refreshing approach to resistance in therapy, Using Relentless Empathy in the Therapeutic Relationship offers practical tools and tips to help therapists and clinicians across all modalities of counseling work with their most challenging clients.

By illustrating the power of empathic responsiveness coupled with attachment science and interventions, the author goes straight to the heart of what's vital for building strong therapeutic alliances with even the most difficult clients. Using Relentless Empathy in the Therapeutic Relationship presents effective tools that clinicians and therapists can use to move away from pathological diagnostic labels toward engaging with people in their distress.

This is a valuable resource to anyone in a helping profession, teaching them to effectively use their most valuable instrument--themselves--by harnessing the power of relentless empathy to shape relationships with not only clients but also the outside world.
