title: [Nonverbal communication in psychotherapy].
abstract: In psychotherapy, use is made of both verbal and nonverbal variants of communications between the psychotherapist + and the patient. The first ones have been studied in a sufficiently detailed manner whereas nonverbal interactions have been elaborated insufficiently. The process of psychotherapy (proceeding from nonverbal prerequisites) is estimated by the author as a combination of nonverbal actions of the patient and the doctor. At the same time special attention is paid to the feeling of distance, postures, gestures, smiles, empathy, definite movements, body incline, free or constrained postures, and so forth. It is believed that nonverbal communication can successfully be used not only in psychotherapy but also in psychodiagnosis and psychotherapy.
