About this deal

This is one of the most challenging and thought-provoking books I have read for a long while. Colin Feltham... brings together a lively style, a depth of knowledge and a concern about the counselling scene, and the result rattles any complacent certainties we may have about our work and our profession... Vision and compassion (and humour) shine out of this book. It is worth having in any counselling library' - [ac]Eisteach, The Journal of the Irish Association for Counselling and Therapy Skovholt, T. M. (2000). The resilient practitioner: Burnout prevention and self-care strategies for counselors, therapists, teachers, and health professionals. Allyn & Bacon. Motivational interviewing is a powerful concept and a beneficial positive intervention, especially for professional setups. Provides an excellent critique of the counselling profession, placing it in the context of its historical and philosophical development. A chapter on "counselling's cousins" helpfully compares and contrasts counselling with associated but different approaches' - British Medical Journal

The message that Yalom says new therapists can benefit from hearing is that pain that causes psychopathology is fundamentally incapable of being remedied. Helping clients to cope with this pain is a central theme. Seligman, M. E. P. (2007). Authentic happiness: Using the new positive psychology to realize your potential for lasting fulfillment. Simon and Schuster. In their book, Gary Chapman and Ross Campbell use the idea of love languages as a way to motivate children to do their best. One of the most directly helpful books on the subject of loss ever written. This completely revised and expanded edition encompasses not only the medical and psychological advances in the treatment of loss, but also the authors' own experiences. They provide insight into adult partner interactions and those between parents and children in what are called “distressed” and “satisfying” contexts.Recommended by eminent psychologists like Susan Gere and others, here are some popular books on child and adolescent therapeutic interventions. 1. The Practice of Child Therapy – Richard J. Morris and Thomas R. Kratochwill The book is based on a qualitative research to find out how carers overcame traumas and conflicts to make the best out difficult situations. It recognizes the importance that positive emotions such as hope and faith play in their daily lives. The text... flows comfortably and confidently, leading the reader by the hand through the problems associated with defining counselling, counselling's cousins to the emergence of contemporary counselling... and what a stimulating, enjoyable and challenging text it is. Having read the book I experienced the same sense of buoyant optimism with which I leave my supervision sessions... Unlike live supervision, the book will sit on my shelf and be available when I need the nurture. To other practitioners I would say "go on, treat yourself"... every word is relevant and necessary. I have enjoyed reading it, learned much from it and found little to disagree with' - Counselling, The Journal of the British Association for Counselling According to the Forbes review, this book can be especially helpful for those who are searching for a new job, career, or role. I Wasn’t Ready to Say Goodbye: Surviving, Coping and Healing After the Sudden Death of a Loved One – Brook Noel and Pamela Blair

From textbooks in the classroom to counselors just starting their careers, counseling platform TheraNest (2019) has provided some great recommendations for beginning therapists. 1. Beginning Mindfulness: Learning the Way of Awareness – Andrew Weiss Rudi Dallos, professor in clinical psychology, and Arlene Vetere, deputy director of clinical psychology at the Institute of Family Therapy in Plymouth, England, are currently active in the field and provide a great deal of knowledge for those looking to make a start in it. Her book discusses how you can obtain a powerful presence by tapping into your own personal power and caring more about what you think of yourself than what others do. The book follows an easy-to-read approach and touches almost all aspects of motivational interviewing. Besides facilitating psychotherapy, this book is also a recommended read for professionals working as leaders, managers, or corporate recruiters.
