| SUMMARY: |
The present book approaches a rather niche
field, in the direction of establishing the extent to which self-structures are responsible
for the emergence of anxiety and depression elements; or if the latter are shapers
of the self-concept, respectively the extent to which the therapeutic activities,
that included modeling of the self-concept, lead to the reduction of emotional
distress. Starting from her experience as a cognitive-behavioral psychotherapist,
the author approaches the issue of self-concept in a clinical context and in a
scientifically rigorous and practically relevant manner. The result is a quality work,
a fact that indicates the scientist-practitioner value of the author. |
