    About this ebook

    Voice Therapy: A Psychotherapeutic Approach to Self-Destructive Behavior is a thought-provoking work that provides clinicians with a detailed description of Voice Therapy, an innovative therapeutic procedure developed by Dr. Robert W. Firestone that can be used to elicit and bring to the foreground negative thought patterns antithetical to the self and cynical toward others (the critical inner voice). Compelling case histories illustrate the core defense and its effect on patients’ personality and behavior. The approach is unique in that it unifies cognitive, existential, and psychoanalytic frameworks and is a comprehensive theory of resistance to any form of psychotherapeutic intervention, personal progress, or development.

      Reading this book made me realize my existence as an actor of causes inexplicable to me. Even though I’m not a psychotherapist, I was able to understand the concepts laid out by the author. Any body who is searching a meaningful relationship with himself/herself should read this book. Existencial roots of my past are now seen from separate point of view which in turn makes me have a constructive criticism of being in respect to the world around me.
