Abstract:

The therapist-client relationship in psychotherapy is considered one
of the most important factors in promoting well-being and facilitating
change in clients. This pioneering book provides a novel perspective
on relationships by focusing on how they are accomplished through
client-therapist interactions. Drawing on the key concept of
affiliation from conversation analysis, it provides new insights into
how therapists and clients forge affiliations in the course of therapy
and how therapists successfully re-establish affiliation with their
clients following disagreement or opposition - or fail to do so. It is
the first book of its kind to offer a systematic overview of the range
of interactional practices found in a particular psychotherapeutic
approach (Emotion Focused Psychotherapy, EFT). By forming linkages
between psychotherapy concepts and conversation analysis, this timely
study is of importance not only to scholars of linguistics and
interaction, but also to clinicians and clinical researchers.
