Richard Nelson-Jones is a master of counselling and training and this excellent text is a tribute to what he describes as an ′integrative theoretical framework and model of practice′. Each chapter is packed with insights on the counselling relationship and the practical application of counselling skills. I value it as a resource for teaching communication skills to social workers and counsellors. It is well written, accessible, has numerous case examples and an attention to the languaging of counselling that is grounded in Richard′s expertise as a counselling practitioner.
