Bridging the gap between selfhelp and therapy, A Holding Space While You Wait for Therapy provides insight, support, compassion and hope to clients who are waiting to begin counselling and psychotherapy. Readers will benefit from building their knowledge through accessible psychoeducation, learning practical tools and reading case vignettes which demonstrate these ideas in practice. Mirroring the way in which a therapist 'holds space' for a client, this book provides nonjudgemental support to those experiencing challenging moments within their lives.
Written in a relational style and backed by academic research, this book provides an accessible yet rigorous guide to selfhelp while waiting for therapy. Each chapter is devoted to exploring a different part of the 'self', drawing from Daniel Stern's 'selfpsychology' and the author's humanistic and integrative perspective. There is guidance on: dealing with feelings and emotions, supporting psychological wellbeing, tuning into the body's wisdom, developing a positive selfrelationship, understanding and improving relationships, connecting with soul and spirituality, and harnessing creativity and the imagination - all with the common purpose of helping and healing.
The openletter, easytöread style makes the content accessible and acts as a companion tool for the reader as they journey through the challenges of life. This is an essential read for clients waiting for therapy, mental health practitioners looking to provide support to waitlisted clients, and trainees or students wanting to better understand the therapeutic journey in full.
