Between Person and Person: Toward a Dialogical Psychotherapy

The publication of Richard Hycner’s long-awaited book BETWEEN PERSON AND PERSON: TOWARD A DIALOGICAL PSYCHOTHERAPY marks a major stride forward in the maturing of the movement of dialogical psychotherapy. By dialogical psychotherapy we mean a therapy which is centered on the meeting between the therapist and his or her client or family as the central healing mode, whatever analysis, role playing, or other therapeutic techniques or activities may also enter in. It is more of an approach than a school of psychotherapy because it belongs to no one school and has had its representatives and pioneers in many major schools of psychotherapy.
