Therapy with a Voice (häftad, eng)

Therapy with a Voice explores the ordinary dialogue between the visible and hidden life of conversation.

We have never had more ways to communicate. Messages move constantly through phones, social media, email, and now AI. Yet many of us still leave conversations feeling unheard, misunderstood, or strangely alone. The book asks why do some conversations leave us lighter, while others echo in our minds for days? Why do we replay what was said - hearing it again through the sharper, more critical voice inside us? Why do certain patterns of explaining, withdrawing, arguing, or pleasing seem to repeat across our relationships?

Whether you are a therapist looking to extend your practice, or simply curious about the conversations that shape your life, Therapy with a Voice offers a fresh way of understanding everyday dialogue.

Through vivid case studies, conversational mapping, reflective writing, and practical exercises, this book is accessible yet profound, and rich not only in theory but also in tools for everyday practice whether for professionals or more generally.

Drawing on the relational tradition of Cognitive Analytic Therapy (CAT), the authors invite us to look beneath the surface of everyday words and dialogue.

We rarely speak with just one voice. Within us is a chorus shaped by our relationships - voices that invite, assert, defend, withdraw, reassure, criticise, or care.

From bestselling author of Therapy with a Map, Steve Potter, in collaboration with clinical psychologist Lucy Cutler, comes a striking new addition to the series.
