This new edition of The Counsellor's Workbook offers you a personal exploration of the key issues that may emerge during your development as a therapist. It provides you with an opportunity to document and consolidate your learning and personal development.

  • Providing arenas for collaborative dialogue and exploration with fellow trainees

  • A helpful introduction to the book so that you understand how to use the Counsellor's Workbook effectively
  • Learning tasks that cover new topics in An Introduction to Counselling 4e, such as transactional analysis theory
  • An entirely new section that focuses upon being a member of a learning group and developing self-awareness
  • New case studies that illustrate effective counselling in practice
