Press Reviews

  • Healthcare Counselling and Psychotherapy Journal

    It is a pleasure to read a book about supervisory practice that invites the reader as this does.
  • The Higher Education Academy Social Policy and Social Work Subject Centre

    I would highly recommend this book for all supervisors and practice learning assessors.
  • The Fulcrum (Journal of the Craniosocial Therapy Association)

    This glorious little book is for anyone who is dubious about the value of supervision. anyone who argued against mandatory supervision at the 2007 CSTA AGM, and all supervisors and supervisees who want more from the supervisory relationship. Right now.I'm off to find a new supervisor.
  • Drama Therapy

    Overall the book presents a rich tapestry of writers with an eclectic mix of training and experience. In this respect I feel there is something for everyone to dip in and out of.
