Circular Therapeutics: Giving Therapy a Healing Heart

In their most recent book, Circular Therapeutics, Brad and Hillary Keeney encourage therapists to let go and free themselves from the imprisonment of any and all models of therapy and instead become wisdom-based practitioners with healing hearts. Through circular therapeutics, utilization, and improvisation, the Keeneys demonstrate how diverse wisdom traditions can positively impact clinical practice and offer help in restoring one s inner resources, gifts and wisdom to revitalize the therapeutic process. Although written to influence behavioral health professionals, Circular Therapeutics is entertaining, refreshing light and readable and appeals to a wide audience including those who have an interest in traditional healing and cybernetics. Reflecting its ideology, Circular Therapeutics goes full circle, beginning with the history of traditional healing, into an introduction into circular therapy and circular poetics. Then takes the reader into the core principles of cybernetic epistemology, to the healing crossroads of change, and through the door to the other side where one can begin their own journey toward embracing a healer s heart.
