Questioning Psychology cover

This insightful book encourages readers to rethink their understanding of others, emphasizing the need for continuous questioning in psychology. Questioning Psychology offers fresh perspectives on human complexity.

In Questioning Psychology, psychologist Brian Levitt invites readers to explore the barriers that hinder our understanding of others. Through thoughtful reflection, he challenges the assumptions that often go unexamined within the field of psychology. Levitt emphasizes the importance of continually questioning our training and beliefs to enhance our ability to perceive and connect with the individuals we encounter in our professional lives.

Drawing from over 25 years of experience as a person-centred practitioner, Levitt deconstructs the foundational concepts of psychology. He encourages readers to approach these ideas with a fresh perspective, moving beyond conventional theories to embrace the inherent complexity of human beings. This approach not only benefits young psychologists but also offers seasoned professionals a renewed lens through which to view their work.

Questioning Psychology serves as a thought-provoking alternative to traditional clinical texts. It advocates for a more nuanced understanding of people, urging practitioners to respect their unique experiences rather than relying solely on established theories. By fostering this mindset, Levitt aims to equip psychologists with the tools necessary to better engage with their clients, ultimately leading to more meaningful connections and insights.
