''Reading this book was like wandering into a wonderful toyshop crammed with exciting games. There were some old favourites, some brand new ones, very clear instructions on all the boxes, lots of encouragement, and absolute permission to jettison those I didn't like. I couldn't wait to get going! There is something for everyone, from the most reluctant beginner to the long-time keeper of journals, from the student in training to the established professional, and tutors, coaches and supervisors everywhere.'' Su Fox, massage and craniosacral therapist, psychotherapist and author of Relating to Clients: The Therapeutic Relationship for Complementary Therapists
