Rezensionen

"I think that the authors have clearly and skilfully illuminated the basic principles and processes of counselling. I found it a valuable way to remind myself of the basics and make some small amendments to my own mental map of the counselling journey." (NZAC Counselling Today, 1 December 2010)"This book enables us to revisit a number of counsellingfundamentals. First, that it is the quality of the relationshipbetween two people which is paramount. Second, that one hat doesnot fit all - we must tailor our approach to each individual.And third, that counselling doesn't cure people, it simplyfacilitates naturally occurring psychological change processes.Wonderfully illustrated with case examples, this book is clearlywritten and down-to-earth. A must-read for beginners andexperienced counsellors alike."
