The new edition of Skills in Person-Centred Counselling and Psychotherapy provides an invaluable introduction to the skills and awareness that are necessary in order to provide an effective helping relationship to individuals struggling to overcome problems in living. Janet Tolan clearly explains key concepts using vivid examples drawn from extensive professional experience. This book is essential reading for anyone setting out to become a counsellor or psychotherapist, or embarking on a career in social work, teaching or healthcare.
This revised edition of a classic in person-centred therapy combines both an accessible introduction to becoming a practitioner, and an up to date, socially situated, and academically rigorous essential guide.
It is rare to find a single volume that allows beginning students to reflect on their own experience, while remaining academically and theoretically rigorous. A genuine must have for any serious student.
This book is a wonderful resource, very well written, up to date and comprehensively researched. A 'must' for every person-centred course reading list.
A good companion book for trainee counsellors of all modalities. It highlights key aspects of the therapeutic relationship to help build the foundation for ethical practice. Each chapter addresses key aspects of the therapeutic dyad and highlights the main points to consider with clear clinical vignettes. Lots of useful exercises help solidify the learning from each chapter.
A classic. We used the previous edition and I have no reason to change to an alternative. Janet Tolan has inspired so many counselling trainees over the years.
