'The lives of our clients are the best they've been able to imagine. The ImageWork approach offers a wonderful invitation to learn to imagine better.' So writes Dr Dina Glouberman, author of the bestselling The Joy of Burnout, in this powerful new book about the theory and practice of ImageWork. ImageWork is the unique approach she has created and developed over 40 years that harnesses the power of the imagination to enhance original thinking, creativity, health, and spiritual discovery. This approach enables people to make creative choices and profound changes. It is used by practitioners worldwide to multiply and deepen the effectiveness of their work in a wide variety of professional settings. This is a practical, comprehensive and accessible handbook for therapists, counsellors, coaches, consultants, supervisors, spiritual directors, health professionals and every helping practitioner. It reveals the underpinning thinking and theory behind ImageWork and how it can be applied in practice. Included with the chapters are numerous scripts and visioning exercises, practice sessions, take-away points and suggestions for helpful tools and other resources to aid the practitioner. This book distils all that Dr Glouberman has learned through developing, practising and teaching this unique approach. Practitioners are also invited to apply ImageWork in their own lives, just as Dr Glouberman herself does every day - 'It's the best training of all.'
