This book is the most authoritative introduction to the theory and practice of Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT). Starting with the main theory and fundamental concepts, it then guides the reader through the phases of therapy from beginning to end. It describes the adaptation of the approach to different client populations, presents a summary of process research, and outlines how EFT therapists monitor their practice. Finally, the three key scales for monitoring and evaluating EFT practice are presented.

Each chapter of the book includes case studies and transcripts of sessions, sections for further reading, and reflective exercises that help enhance understanding of the approach. The Greek edition includes the latest (revised and enriched) version of the Person-Centered and Experiential Psychotherapy Scale, as well as a glossary of Greek-English and English-Greek terms.
