The Promise and Problem of the Talking Therapies

  • Colin Feltham - Emeritus Professor of Counselling & Psychotherapy, Sheffield Hallam University

November 1995 | 192 pages | SAGE Publications Ltd
"After the first 40 pages I was hooked, and it has been a long time since I have been unable to put a book down unitl it was finished. I would highly recommend this book. Colin Feltham has brought together all the elements that have or do influence counselling, including placing counselling in a social context. As far as this publication goes I have actually put my money where my mouth is and paid for a copy of my own." --Gladeana McMahon in British
