This revised edition of a classic in person-centred therapy combines both an accessible introduction to becoming  a practitioner, and an up to date, socially situated, and academically rigorous essential guide.

It is rare to find a single volume that allows beginning students to reflect on their own experience, while remaining academically and theoretically  rigorous. A genuine must have for any serious student.

The reader can expect to be fully engaged with the ideas offered in the new chapter.  This book is an essential read for any new therapist.




-- Carol Wolter-Gustafson

This book is a wonderful resource, very well written, up to date and comprehensively researched. A ′must′ for every person-centred course reading list.
