Personal Styles in Neurosis (RLE: Group Therapy) - Implications for Small Group Psychotherapy and Behaviour Therapy

Personal Styles in Neurosis was originally published in 1981. The inadequacies of the ‘medical model’ for the understanding and psychological treatment of neuroses were widely recognized. A number of alternative approaches had arisen in response, but most of the models were theoretical, and little experimental support was documented. The authors collected a considerable amount of original research material over many years, and their evidence demonstrates the fundamental importance of ‘personal style’ in treatment allocation and response.
