'Outstanding. Extremely well written. This is a brilliant book. Richard Bryant-Jefferies certainly demonstrates the usefulness of a person-centred approach, and what he says goes far beyond just one method of counselling. Exceptionally good...very true to life, both to counselling life, and the real life of young binge drinkers. The style is extremely informative, but it also reads like a can't-put-it-down novel.' Richard Velleman, Director, Mental Health Research and Development Unit, University of Bath, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership NHS Trust, and Visting Professor of Psychology, University of Naples 'A valuable resource. Moves beyond the traditional academic approach that limits the transfer of knowledge to a restricted audience. Brings together theory and practice that is relevant to the practitioner and the layman alike. Sheds light on the complexity of the issues that underline persistent and destructive self-harming behaviours. The book is written to appeal to a spectrum of audiences including supervisors, practitioners, students and laypersons.' Robin Everall, in her Foreword 'Clearly imagined. Well written. Vivid. This book opens a window to the reader to see and feel the intricacies of individual psychotherapy and counselling. The description of the process is fascinating - capturing as it does so much of the uncertainties and the doubts as well as the breakthroughs, the moments of connection and illumination that make the whole experience so worthwhile.' Peter Wilson, in his Foreword
