The Little Guide to Counselling Practice has been written for all those involved in counselling: students of counselling and beginning and continuing counsellors. It examines a wide range of issues and how to deal with them from the author’s perspective. The book stresses throughout the need to treat the work of counselling as an honour bestowed on the counsellor. It strongly recommends that counsellors be aware of their own bias so that little pieces of their reality do not get mixed up with the client’s reality. It also strongly recommends regular supervision to help a counsellor maintain ones balance.
