Self-Agency in Psychotherapy by Jean Knox
A discussion of the self, both in and out of therapy.
"This book will surely become a classic! It is a remarkable, groundbreaking, sweeping synthesis of the best research available on the formation of the mind applied to the art of psychotherapyIn masterly fashion, Knox not only takes the reader through the developmental evolution of self-agency, but also manages to challenge and empower each of us to claim the various levels of agency by which we live and work." -- Joe Cambray, PhD, President, International Association for Analytic Psychology
"Self-Agency in Psychotherapy is an amazing integration of developmental research and neuroscience with clinical theory and practice. Knox has written a fascinating and important book." -- Beatrice Beebe, PhD, Clinical Professor of Psychology in Psychiatry, Columbia University
"Knox has given us gold. At once accessible and erudite, Self-Agency in Psychotherapy points the way to new conceptions of mind and of interaction. Spanning far-ranging literatures of psychoanalysis, neurobiology, infant research, and philosophy, Knox weaves an argument that self-agency is at the nexus of cultural, bodily and psychic forces. This volume represents cutting-edge interpersonal neurobiology, thought through the lens of a practicing analytic clinician.
