Historically, the langauge and concepts within clinical theory have been steeped in linear assumptions and reductionist thinking. Because the essence of pyschotherapy involves change, Psyche's Veil suggests that clinical practice is inherently a nonlinear affair.
In this book Terry Marks-Tarlow provides therapists with new language, models and metaphors to narrow the divide between theory and practice, while bridging the gap between psychology and the sciences. By applying contemporary perspectices of chaos theory, complexity theory and fractal geometry to clinical practice, the author discards traditional conceptions of health based on ideal of regularity, set points and normative statistics in favour of models that emphasize unique moments, viarability, and irregularity. Psyche's Veil further explores philosophical and spiritual implications of contemporary science for pyschotherapy.
