Reviews
The best person to write a book about panic attacks is someone who has overcome panic and anxiety in themselves and is now a health psychologist working with clients going through the same condition. That's what you have here in your hand. Sandra takes an integrative approach, blending together a gentle medical analysis of the condition with practical approaches for working with clients using both body and mind techniques. Presented with empathy, written from the heart and a must have for any wellness professional's bookshelf. -- Laurel Alexander, complementary therapist, wellness coach and author of How to Incorporate Wellness Coaching into Your Therapeutic Practice, Sussex, UK.
