Reviews for Creative Counselling: Creative Tools and Interventions to Nurture Therapeutic Relationships

This book contains a huge array of creative interventions and describes how to use them in counselling sessions... . I can also see that some of these interventions could enable certain clients to connect and open up in a way they might not otherwise have felt able to. What is abundantly clear throughout the book is the author's heartfelt enthusiasm for working creatively, and for helping clients to find meaning through a creative lens. * Therapy Today * This is a truly comprehensive guide to help counsellors and therapists embrace a multitude of creative tools and techniques. Useful for those new to incorporating creativity into their practice, and as well as for the more experienced practitioner. -- Jennifer Guest, Clinical Supervisor, Author of Even More CBT Art Activities
