Reviews

Erskine creates a book based on his eight principles that both educates on individual psychological processes and exemplifies the weaving that is integrational psychotherapy. Its place is held by being a citable proof to the value of psychotherapy and the methods within it. - Kevin Jeffrey Goldwater, Somatic Psychotherapy Today
