| Abstract | "The guiding initiative behind this book was to take the most current research in the field on the therapy relationship and apply it to a specific clinical context, that of psychotherapy for pregnancy loss. This notion was born from over 60 years of research on the association between the therapy relationship and treatment outcome (Norcross & Lambert, 2019) and the author's clinical experiences conducting weekly outpatient psychotherapy with both individuals and couples struggling to come to terms with the loss of a pregnancy or unborn baby. During which, a supportive and understanding relationship is often all one truly has to offer a grieving parent. Consistent with this, this book maps out an approach to psychotherapy for pregnancy loss wherein it is not the therapist's theoretical orientation or specific techniques per say that are believed to predict treatment outcome, but a focus on the relationship and the functions (e.g., affect regulation, self-esteem maintenance, empathy, support) it provides grieving parents"-- Provided by publisher. |
