Learning emotion-focused therapy: The process-experiential approach to change.
Abstract
This book provides a user-friendly introduction to emotion-focused treatment, presenting PE emotion theory and the basics of the approach in an organized, streamlined fashion. Furthermore, in the 10 years since Greenberg, Rice and Elliott's (1993), Facilitating Emotional Change appeared, PE therapy has continued to develop rapidly: The theory has become more clearly articulated; the treatment has been applied to new clinical populations (such as PTSD and borderline processes); more has been learned about the original six therapeutic tasks; and new therapeutic tasks have been added.

Using empathic exploration and experiential focusing allowed Louise to access, deepen and symbolise her experiences of FCR, which led her to begin to approach her core pain, the fear of dying.
“Using mainly empathic exploration (Elliott et al., 2004) and experiential focusing (Gendlin, 1981) allowed the client to access, deepen and symbolise her experiences of FCR, which, in turn, led the client to begin to approach what seemed to be her core pain (i.e., the thing that hurts the most), the fear of dying.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
