pluralism from the vantage point of developed practice and directly
speaking to contemporary issues such as equality and diversity in a

Pluralistic therapy offers an open, inquiring, flexible framework
for client-centred practice. It was introduced in response to the
schoolism that emerged from the growing numbers of competing
schools and models of therapy in the early years of the 21st
century. Built on the principles of pluralism, it promotes
partnership and equality between client and practitioner,
client-defined goals, and a willingness and flexibility in the
therapist to adapt their ways of working and draw on a range of
models and approaches to best suit the client's needs and
preferences. It values difference and promotes inclusivity and
dialogue within the field. In this long-awaited book, Kate Smith
and Ani de la Prida summarise the principles, underpinning
philosophy and key features of the approach. They also consider the
emerging research into pluralistic therapy and what it can look
like in practice.
