Psychodynamic counseling is rooted in psychoanalytic tradition. It relates to a rich wealth of material that helps us to understand the functioning of the human psyche, the stages of human development, and provides us with the potential for insight and understanding when things go wrong or when expectations are not fulfilled. The depth and breadth of theory can be very challenging to trainees or professionals, yet few books seem to take into account the modern world in which diversity abounds. This book provides a comprehensive look at how psychoanalytic thoughts can be applied to counselling to meet the demands of the twenty-first century, particularly by addressing diversity in all its forms.
