The authors of this book beautifully describe the hierarchical
order of emotions, how to identify specific emotions, and
ultimately how to work and restructure the client's relationship to
powerful and damaging maladaptive emotions. For people who are
interested in cognitive and experiential work with emotions, this
book is invaluable. - The Journal of Psychotherapy Practice and
Research
For any therapist who believes that it is important to address the
powerful emotions that clients bring to therapy, this is an
important and seminal book. - Canadian Psychology
There is no doubt that Greenberg is both a pioneer and the field's
premier investigator in the important work of applying the basic
research on emotions to the process of psychotherapy. The focus on
primary emotions and their change is what distinguishes this book.
It is a fabulous compendium of strategies for working with emotions
and draws from both behavioral and experiential therapies. A 'must
read.' - Marsha M. Linehan, PhD
