Counseling Persons with Parkinson's Disease offers a glimpse into life with chronic illness--Parkinson's or otherwise--and it employs a unique approach to counseling those who have it. The author is in a unique position to discuss this because, in addition to receiving his own diagnosis in 2016, he's taught counselors how to engage patients living with chronic illnesses for years. All at once informative, realistic, humorous, and hopeful, this book will guide clinicians who give counsel, educators who teach counseling, people supporting someone else, and anyone living with a chronic illness.
