Inside Counselling is an original, innovative, and creative exploration of the experience of becoming and being a counselor and engaging in the therapeutic process. Written in a novel-like format, the book enters the internal, subjective world of counselling through its characters: students, counselors, clients, supervisors, and the author himself. Weaving together their perspectives and using ""talk"" as its main mediumùthe talk of counseling and supervision sessions, the training group, workshops, and the studentÆs journalùthe book breaks away from traditional methods and conventions to present complex theories, difficult concepts, and serious information in an engaging, focused, and manageable way through personal experience, reflection, and comment. Inside Counselling encourages its readers to think subjectively, to question theories that come solely from outside, to stay with and use their internal world as the main focus of counseling work, and it provides personal development exercises to help the reader access long-forgotten feelings. This is a memorable book, and one that is sure to promote and provoke controversy and discussion. | Inside Counselling by Anthony Crouch, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
