ISBN: 978-5-59905455-1-9
The book Conflict Operationalization in Positive Psychotherapy by Maksim Goncharov examines the conceptualization and structured analysis of conflicts within the framework of positive psychotherapy. It presents a systematic approach to identifying and differentiating various types of conflicts, including actual, basic, inner, and key conflicts, and explores their interrelations in the therapeutic process. The author emphasizes the central role of conflict as a core mechanism underlying psychological distress and personal development. Particular attention is given to the operationalization of conflicts as a practical tool for assessment and intervention, enabling therapists to translate theoretical constructs into clinically applicable strategies. The work contributes to a deeper understanding of conflict dynamics and provides a structured model for their application in psychotherapeutic practice.
