'A counsellor's pocketbook and a useful companion to students on courses up to counselling skills certificate level' Counselling and Psychotherapy Journal'I believe this book is a must for every counsellor's library. It illustrates clearly the techniques, process and goals of counselling, and is spiced with interesting and entertaining case studies. Supervisors and teachers will find it useful to guide their students and experienced counsellors will be reminded of the basics in this excellent book.' Dr John Gunzburg, Melbourne, Australia.

Drawing on their numerous years experience as counsellors, tutors, and writers, Jan Sutton and William Stewart introduce readers to the basic principles that underpin counselling practice; provide insight into various counseling approaches; clarify the nature of counseling and the role of the counsellor, and assist readers to develop a repertoire of key counselling skills and qualities, such as active listening, genuineness, unconditional positive regard, empathy, goal-setting, etc. They also address the important issues of ongoing supervision to enhance counselling practice, and counsellor self-care to reduce the risk of burnout. Jan Sutton is also author of Healing the Hurt Within and William Stewart is author of An A-Z of Counselling Theory and Practice.
