Joseph Bobrow – författare

Insight, attentiveness, and transformative experience are central in bothBuddhism and psychotherapy. An “intimate dialogue” that examines theinterplay of emotional and spiritual development through the lens of ZenBuddhism and psychotherapy, this book artfully illuminates the intrinsicconnections between the two practices, and demonstrates how these traditionscan be complementary in helping to live a truly fulfilled and contented life.As this book deftly explores, integrating the two streams of Zen and psychotherapycan help us to better grasp our conscious and unconscious experiences andmore fully develop the fundamental capacities of the self. Bobrow shows howthe major themes of trauma, attachment, emotional communication, andemotional regulation play out in the context of Zen and psychotherapeuticpractice, and how, in concert, both provide a comprehensive, interactive modelof fully functioning human life.
