‘Reflecting decades of experience as a psychotherapist, this book offers a moving approach to the understanding and treatment of trauma. Pizer emphasizes an intergenerational framework of understanding and the importance of the human relationship in effecting recovery. Drawing widely from the fields of psychoanalysis, gestalt therapy, analytical psychology, and transpersonal psychology, the text is to be applauded for its scope of reference. With an outlook that is deeply personal without sacrificing its relevance to clinicians, Pizer offers a compelling mediation on Jewishness and the nature of collective trauma.’ Robin S. Brown, PhD, psychoanalyst in private practice and author of Groundwork for a Transpersonal Psychoanalysis ‘With Psychotherapy and The Soul, Isaac Pizer has written a wonderfully engaging and soulful account, generously supported with abundant case material and richly substantiated with references from his close acquaintance with the relevant literature, which is a call for us all, in our therapeutic work with psychological trauma, to follow his own journey - as a Gestalt therapist deeply imbued with the radical relationality of Martin Buber - to engage also with the Depth of the realms of the transpersonal and the transgenerational. As an integration of theory and practice this book is a veritable tour de force which I found both moving and inspiring, and it will certainly encourage and enrichen your own practice as it has mine.’ Dr Gordon Barclay, MA, MPhil, MRCGP, MRCP, MRCPsych, retired NHS consultant psychiatrist, CAT therapist, founder/trainer TDS (Towards a Dialectical Self)
