Where the Waters Meet

So often psychology and counselling therapies have been seen as competitors, or even enemies, vying for supremacy as the true religion. This book invites us to take a look at these two fields, each with their own experience and dogma, and view them in a different light. We are introduced to "complementarity", an approach through which vital common factors begin to break through the barriers of convention and jargon. Where the Waters Meet is written from deeply held convictions - about faith and about therapy - and emerges from several decades of experience in ordained ministry, and of working as a psychodynamic counsellor. David Buckley is passionate about both the healing process of therapy and the life-giving inspiration of faith. He sees the two not as enemies but as intrinsically linked.--From publisher's statement.
