Reviews
'This beautifully written book has a lot to offer to both novice and experienced counsellors and psychotherapists, and alsoto clients. I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in understanding how therapy can make a difference.' Julia McLeod, Lecturer in Counselling and Psychotherapy, Abertay University. 'I read this book avidly, riveted by the author's creativity, the clarity of his presentation, and by the rich, compassionate case studies that weave through his writing from beginning to end. Practitioners of differing approaches and levels of experience will find this book refreshingly practical. It encourages us to explore and experiment, to work respectfully and sensitively.'
