Abstract

The practical approach to problem-solving and the opening up of possibilities is responsible for the unbroken popularity of G. Egan’s book “The skilled helper”. He recognised from the outset that there was a tension between behavioural science psychology, on the one hand, and humanistic psychology, on the other. In all editions of his book, Egan tried to combine the two psychological directions, recognising that the behaviourist counselling always needed humanising. It was important for him not only to present a model of helping but also to provide counsellors with a set of techniques and skills to make his approach actually work.
