Intuition in Psychotherapy and Counselling\n\nRachel Charles (Author)\n\n9781861564177, Wiley\n\nPaperback / softback, published 21 September 2004\n\n270 pages\n23.3 x 15.6 x 1.7 cm, 0.454 kg\n\nSince nonverbal messages have been shown to dominate interpersonal communication, and since their cues are gathered intuitively, it is clearly a distinct advantage for therapists and counsellors to be familiar with this phenomenon. Based on original research into intuition within clinical practice, Rachel Charles provides in-depth explanations of the process, appropriately illustrated with models and case histories. This includes intuition's allo-logical and global aspects, its relationship to empathy and its links with spiritual practice.\nA theoretical framework is thus provided for its comprehension and teaching. While some people are naturally more intuitive than others, the author makes a number of practical recommendations whereby the faculty of intuition can be cultivated by therapists]
