An Integrative Approach to Therapy and Supervision presents an innovative and flexible model for therapy and supervision practice. The model draws on ideas from the psychological traditions of Transactional Analysis, Gestalt theory and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to develop an integrated approach to working with clients and to developing a supervisor-supervisee relationship that can be adapted to suit the needs of individual personalities and situations. The authors lay out the theory underlying the model, how it relates to existing models of supervision, and demonstrate how the model works in practice using case material to illustrate the range of approaches that can be applied in a given scenario. This book is essential reading for both new and experienced practitioners, as well as those responsible for training therapists, counsellors and supervisors.

This book attempts to answer questionings by practitioners from various humanistic-existential approaches, such as transactional analysis, Gestalt therapy, person-centred approach, Ericksonian hypnosis, psychosynthesis, psycho-organic analysis, and psycho-drama, as well as family therapy.

Die Konfirmation zählt zu den intensivsten Berührungen von Jugendlichen mit Kirche, ist aber bislang nicht empirisch erforscht. Auch praktisch-theologisch weist sie facettenreiche Bezüge auf. Die hier entwickelte Typologie der praktisch-theologischen Diskurse bietet ein dynamisches Instrument, das die zerklüftete und außerordentlich vielschichtige Diskussionslage zu verstehen hilft. Im Zentrum steht die Rekonstruktion der Perspektive der Jugendlichen auf den biografisch bedeutsamen Konfirmationstag. Die Ergebnisse liefern ein detailreiches Bild davon, wie Konfirmand*innen ihre Konfirmation erlebt haben. Auf dieser Basis wird eine Neuinterpretation der Konfirmation als Empowerment vorgeschlagen. Dieser Ansatz eröffnet neue denkerische Wege, praktisch-theologisch reflektiert notwendige Entscheidungen zur künftigen Gestaltung der Konfirmation zu denken.
