Rezensionen

Praise for the first edition:

'The Therapeutic Use of Self is a remarkable achievement, bringing together careful scholarship, the findings of her own research with clients and counsellors, and a high degree of openness about her personal feelings and experiences in relation to clients.

This is a courageous and revealing book, in which the author draws on highly intimate and private areas of her personal life in exploring issues such as the 'impaired therapist', 'working at the boundaries', and 'unorthodox practice'. The book is consistently informative and interesting, and hopefully will be read not only by students and trainees seeking enlightenment around the concept of 'congruence', but by all practitioners open to challenge and creative renewal. Few people can have read as widely as Val Wosket, or be so able to combine scholarly and personal insights in such an accessible and stimulating way.' - Professor John McLeod, Professor of Psychology, University of Oslo and Emeritus Professor of Counselling, University of Abertay
