On Becoming a Psychotherapist

Windy Dryden, Laurence Spurling

1989

This book marks Windy Dryden's fiftieth year in the field of counselling and psychotherapy. The structure of the book mirrors the development of Windy's career. Things happened to him, and he responded. They did not happen to Windy in a logical order, so this book does not have a logical order other than one that reflects the passage of time. Windy wanted this book to be personal and short, and on both counts, he has been successful! About the Author Windy Dryden is Emeritus Professor of Psychotherapeutic Studies at Goldsmiths University of London and is in part-time independent and practice. His interests include helping people at the point of need and training therapists to offer single-session therapy. His latest interest is in microtherapy, in which the therapist offers 20-minute focused conversations to people in need.
