Reviews

"'How do we become who we are?' This book brings together contemporary theory and practice--backed by research--from the fields of evolution and development, neuroscience and infant studies, as well as elegant, in-depth case studies. For the serious-minded practitioner, it offers substantive ground for a fuller understanding of the theory and practice of relational psychotherapy." - Ruella Frank, Ph.D., co-author, The First Year and the Rest of Your Life (Routledge, 2010) "Not just an invaluable resource for child and adolescent therapists and a delightful narrative, this book sets a new foundation for what it means to be a relational Gestalt psychotherapist today. It connects relationships and brain growth, in the process providing the neurobiological underpinnings of the organism/environment's ability to cope with the complexity of social life, which is the heart of the Gestalt model." - Margherita Spagnuolo Lobb, Director, Istituto di Gestalt HCC, Italy "This book sets a milestone in the advancement of Gestalt therapy thinking and practice in the 21st century. It is a finely woven tapestry of current advances in child development, relationships, and neurobiology, all held within the integrative framework of Gestalt therapy." - Brian O'Neill, Director, Illawarra Gestalt Centre, Australia
