Psychotherapy and Buddhism
A retreat with Jan Boswijk.
Buddhism and psychotherapy seem to be very similar. Both seek to transform suffering and increase happiness. But just what do they have in common? Where do they differ and where do they overlap?
Can we say, for example, that Buddhist practice involves suppressing emotions such as anger, whilst experimental psychotherapy helps to deal with these feelings? Can Buddhist
practice and psychotherapy work together and be mutually supportive, or do we have to choose between them?
