Almost two decades ago, the psychoanalyst Sussman said the therapist's motivation for practicing was a neglected area. This book moves from personal musing to collaborative and systematic inquiry, with six separate accounts as told by counsellors and psychotherapists. Each therapist represent a different modality and all come with different backgrounds. |

While CBT can be a good immediate help, it cannot provide lasting solutions for relationships in crisis. Rosie believes we need an approach with more long term success than CBT, but quicker and cheaper than classical psychoanalysis. She wants to reinstate the values of the "old-fashioned" theories of analysis but with a modern twist: getting to the heart of the problem within the first few sessions. This book demonstrates how she has put this into practice over the last 20 years. |

As the demand for tighter professionalism
grows in the complementary healing world, and government regulation
increases, a more skilled approach to counselling patients has
become priority. Few practitioners over the past 30 years have
used more than basic listening skills as part of their clinical
work - because they were not taught counselling techniques. This
book seeks to change this. |
