In John Birtchnell's last book How Humans Relate, he proposed a new
theory as the basis for a science of relating. Relating in
Psychotherapy explains how the relevance of this theory relates to
the practice of psychotherapy. The theory cuts across all schools
of therapy, and is a way of describing each school in terms of
relating in both the client and the therapist.The theory is
constructed around two major axes; a horizontal one concerning the
degree to which we need to become involved with or separated from
others, and a vertical one concerning the degree to which we choose
to exercise power over others or permit others to exercise their
power over us. With numerous clinical examples, John Birtchnell
explains how we need to be competet in all four relating positions
(close, distant, upper and lower), and argues that people who seek
therapy usually lack competence in one or more of them, but through
the course of therapy, their relating capabilities can be
improved.Relating in Psychotherapy can have applications in
psychotherapy and in couple and family therapy, and will be an
invaluable resource for therapists, counsellors and other mental
health professionals.
