Personhood: Warmth and Wakefulness

“…of all the factors that make psychotherapy effective, the most important one is the client. The second most important thing is therapist personal factors. Mahoney calls that Personhood.” This is a wonderful essay on the importance of the personhood of the therapist with quotations from Mahoney (Human Change Process), Bergen and Lambert, Jean Liedloff, David Reynolds, and Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche.
