Changing Emotion with Emotion by Leslie S Greenberg

Methods described in this book can help clients to arrive at, or fully experience, their painful maladaptive emotions, and then leave these emotions by accessing new, adaptive emotions. These methods include helping clients sit with painful feelings, access bodily felt experience, and articulate the meaning of an emotion.
Conceptually brilliant, clinically bold, and empirically persuasive, this book is pure Greenberg—perhaps today’s most well-rounded and accomplished scholar, researcher, practitioner, and trainer in psychotherapy-- Louis G. Castonguay, PhD, Liberal Arts Professor of Psychology, Penn State University, University Park, PA
In this book, Leslie Greenberg, one of the world’s leading experts, presents a deep and insightful view of how to work with emotion in psychotherapy. This is a book for all practicing therapists, as well as for those who teach psychotherapy and those who do research on psychotherapy. The author presents a unique, research-based model of how working with emotion creates change. I particularly liked the chapters that dealt with therapist skills. It gives a sophisticated and insightful view of the roles of therapist empathy and self disclosure. It also includes important sections on dealing with culture and systemic racism. It will be useful to therapists of all persuasions. I plan to use it in my classes.
  -- Arthur C. Bohart, PhD, Professor Emeritus, California State University Dominguez Hills
Leslie Greenberg has long been a source of some of the most important and generative ideas in our field. At a time when psychotherapy is sometimes reduced to an arid overemphasis on cognition, Greenberg points our attention to experience and emotion. This book is rigorously grounded in research and amply filled with rich nuggets for the clinician. -- Paul L. Wachtel, PhD, Distinguished Professor of Clinical Psychology, City College of CUNY, New York, NY
