The Role of Unexpected Events in Stories: J. Bruner’s and C. Feldman’s Florentine Seminar (SpringerBriefs in Psychology) is a fascinating and intellectually rich exploration of how unexpected events shape the stories we tell—and, more importantly, how they shape the human mind. Rooted in the seminal work of Jerome Bruner and Charles Feldman, this concise yet powerful brief examines narrative psychology through a blend of theory, research, philosophy, and cognitive insight.

CBT and Existential Psychology: Philosophy, Psychology and Therapy

CBT and Existential Psychology: Philosophy, Psychology and Therapy is an advanced and thought-provoking academic resource that bridges two powerful traditions in psychology—Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and existential psychology. This unique book explores how scientific, cognitive approaches to therapy can be enriched by philosophical ideas about meaning, freedom, responsibility, and human existence. It is an essential read for psychology students, therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals who want to deepen their theoretical and practical understanding of psychotherapy.

This book carefully examines how CBT techniques can be integrated with existential psychological principles to create more holistic therapeutic approaches.

By combining these perspectives, the book offers a more complete framework for understanding human suffering and psychological growth.

Key Features:

  • 🧠 Integration of CBT and Existential Therapy: Combines evidence-based psychological therapy with philosophical psychology.
