ISBN-13: 978-1733625807, ISBN-10: 1733625801

In this seminal work Moreno introduces the triadic system of psychodrama, sociometry and group psychotherapy. The current popularity of neuroscience and trauma research has placed psychodrama in the forefront of mind/body methods as Moreno was the first to say that “the body remembers what the mind forgets” and to identify the need to include the full person in the therapeutic milieu. Moreno is considered to be the father of group psychotherapy and is the first person to have treated people in groups, his work represents the turning point from treating people “in isolation to treating them in groups".

Schutzenberger, Anne Ancelin. (1998). The Ancestor syndrome.

Routledge

ISBN-13: 978-0415191876

In The Ancestor Syndrome Anne Ancelin Schutzenberger explains and provides clinical examples of her unique psychogenealogical approach to psychotherapy. She shows how, as mere links in a chain of generations, we may have no choice in having the events and traumas experienced by our ancestors visited upon us in our own lifetime. The book includes fascinating case studies and examples of 'Geno sociograms' (family trees) to illustrate how her clients have conquered seemingly irrational fears, psychological and even physical difficulties by discovering and understanding the parallels between their own life and the lives of their forebears. The theory of 'invisible loyalty' owed to previous generations, which may make us unwittingly re-enact their life events, is discussed in the light of ongoing research into transgenerational therapy.
