""This amazing book should find a home in the library of every therapist no matter in which therapeutic approach or discipline they prefer to work. For many, the concept of Narrative Therapy will be new and there can be no better example of the skill required to achieve positive outcomes for this much damaged group of clients, who can be healed by this process.""[Susan] is an expert practitioner and her skills are evident as you read about the painful events in these client's lives, frequently across generations, continents and cultures. The case histories make compelling reading and a debt is owed by all the readers to the clients who have been willing to share their lives and enable all who read this book to become better therapists as a result.""– Jan Hillman, UKCP (BASRT) Psychosexual Counsellor, Psychotherapist""Reading this book has been life changing. I have recently attained my diploma in counselling, and currently work as a volunteer counsellor at a project which specialises in assisting people affected by childhood abuse. The stories from the book have already influenced how I work, and I am sure [they] will be of great interest to counsellors working in this field.""– Stacy Simons, MBACP Volunteer Counsellor, Krane Project
