Introduction to “The Manchester Trilogy: Keynotes of Note”
Abstract
We are pleased to offer three Keynotes delivered in November 2024 at the Manchester Institute for Psychotherapy’s conference on “Empowerment – Empathy – Self-Agency Within the Therapeutic Relationship” (https://mcpt.co.uk). Each Keynote, delivered by a leading expert in Developmentally- focused, Relationally-based Integrative Psychotherapy, offers a unique perspective on the theme of the conference and the importance of creating an empowering environment for relational healing in Integrative Psychotherapy, the role of empathy within that relationship, and the therapeutic necessity to support self-agency as a positive therapeutic outcome.
