In addition, each author is mindful of the importance of a critical appraisal of the various concepts and theories. Thus, this book will be extremely useful both for trainees and practitioners.” Dr Anastasios Gaitanidis, Senior Lecturer, University of Roehampton, London, UK“As well as being an invaluable source of knowledge about all aspects of counselling and psychotherapy, this book is a real pleasure to read.
