The best and most thorough introduction to therapy Rating (5) Date: 2002-07-17 7 out of 7 customers found this reveiw helpful Nelson-Jones takes this complex subject and explains the whys and hows of each different type of therapy about as well as it can be done. There is no better introduction.

Definitive introduction to key counselling theories. Rating (5) Date: 2002-02-07 26 out of 26 customers found this reveiw helpful Always puzzled about the many different theories of counselling and how they relate but don't have 25 hours a day to read then this the book for you. As a careers adviser trying to understand many different approaches to counselling and guidance, I am always searching for a book to simply explain what they are all about in a readable way. This is the book and more. It not only explains the theory but tells you about the life of the theorist who has produced it and also the therapeutic methods that they would follow to help their clients using their theory. It puts you in control to understand the theory and dispute the areas you disagree with. It puts the theories in their different schools of thought and challenges you to apply the theory to yourself through questions at the end of each chapter. There is also a summary of each chapter at its' end in easy to understand bullet points. Jung, Freud, and others are here in clarity. But remember this is not just theory but also practice and so at the start of the book Nelson-Jones challenges the reader to formulate their own personal model of counselling using his book. This book will be useful to the student, one book to cover all the course topics; to the practicing counsellor, to improve their work and to the lecturer, who wants to learn how to explain theories simply to their students. Nelson-Jones writes in a way that makes it hard to put down, a compliment more often associated with fictional rather than academic books. Do not worry about the price it will save you buying three other similar books.
