{"product_id":"9783540157687","title":"Positive Family Therapy: The Family as Therapist","description":"\u003ch1\u003ePositive Family Therapy: The Family as Therapist\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003ePeseschkian, Nossrat; Rohlfing, Martha\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe author's principal aim is to win over the patient through the development of the \"positive\" aspects of his psychopathology-a concern the significance of which I have also discovered, especially in schizophrenic therapy. It is in this specific sense that Peseschkian speaks of \"positive\" psychotherapy. His model is a notable synthesis of psychodynamic and behavior-therapeutic elements, making an essential contribution to unified relationships within psychotherapy. In this way Peseschkian is attempting not to directly confront the patient's resistances. The consultation takes place in a loving way through allusions to poetry, proverbs and oriental fairy tales and myths, to which Peseschkian, as a Persian, has direct access. His ability to offer his patient a great treasure of handed-down wisdom knows no bounds. Anyone who has personally experi­ enced the author's therapeutic enthusiasm and optimism will understand why this method of short psychotherapeutic procedure is highly successful in its effects.
