Clinical Studies in Transpersonal Psychotherapy

Review:

"A simple, clear, easily understood book with lots of clinical examples, written in an open, self-revealing style, which serves as a good introduction to the field." -- Roger Walsh, M.D., Ph.D., author of The Spirit of Shamanism and coeditor of Paths Beyond Ego: The Transpersonal Vision

"Bringing transpersonal theory into clinical practice is a new and important development in psychology, and this book is an important beginning in that process. Ken Wilber's Foreword is excellent." -- David Nichol, M.D., psychiatrist in private practice

"Dr. Boorstein has developed a simple yet elegant approach to transpersonal psychotherapy. He has a direct communication style which simplifies a complex topic. He honors his psychoanalytic training, and presents cases from that diagnostic approach. He develops an understandable transpersonal intervention criteria using Vipassana meditation, Buddhist theory, and A Course in Miracles." -- Michael S. Hutton, Institute of Transpersonal Psychology
