5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent book for person-centred counsellors, 24 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Developing Person-Centred Counselling (Developing Counselling series) (Paperback)
This book is aimed at counsellors who have already undergone some training in the Person-Centred Approach and are familiar with applying PCA concepts to their work. If people have not yet read Person-Centred Counselling in Action by Dave Mearns I would recommend reading it first. The book covers a wide range of general areas in which PCA counsellors may develop, using examples and ideas for application. It also contains specific applications for PCA counsellors including sections I found very interesting on mental health from a PCA perspective and an interesting review matrix using interpersonal perspectives which I have found very effective with some clients.

4.0 out of 5 stars If you know what's going on..., 20 Oct 2007
By Constance Maloy (Nottingham, UK) - See all my reviews
Though this book does provide many comprehensive answers to questions posed in the Person-centred approach, I agree with the previous review in that having some prior knowledge in the Person-Centred Approach is extremely helpful. Though the book is fairly self-explanatory, it does sometimes dip into specialist terms which led me to page-flicking through other books.

However, do not be worried. At the end of each chapter there is a small summary box which heads up all of the previous chapter neatly. Though a little research into PCA is suggested before reading this book, perhaps that's why it is called *Developing* Person-Centred Counselling. *grin*
