Psychodynamic Counselling in Action by Michael Jacobs
Psychodynamic Counselling in Action is widely regarded as the most accessible introduction to the psychodynamic approach, making it ideal for readers who are new to the subject.
`One of the most reliable (and readable) guides to what is involved in counselling that stems from the various psychoanalytic traditionsJacobs′ well-organized and comprehensive summaries of the main theories and his illustrations of psychodynamic counselling drawn from his own work will inspire students and trainees on counselling and therapy courses. They will also interest (and create envy) in more experienced readers′ - Professor Andrew Samuels, Centre for Psychoanalytic Studies, University of Essex
