It answers so many of the questions I had wanted to ask, but didn′t because I feared I should have known the answers. Amis writes skilfully using her own experience as a trainer, counsellor and supervisor, and does so with warmth, compassion and knowledge. I strongly recommend this book for anyone in training, or contemplating it.′\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr Andrew Reeves\u003cbr\u003eCounsellor, Supervisor, Trainer and Editor of Counselling and Psychotherapy Research journal\u003c\/b\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn Introduction to Counselling Training Starting out Theoretical Orientation Who Needs Counselling?
