Space for genuine feedback
Feedback from therapists and clinicians who have used the guide.
“A wonderful resource for dealing with the common challenges that arise in therapy. The strategies offer tangible interventions while also shining a light on what may be happening within the therapist–client dynamic.”
Therapist“An amazing job of providing informative, real-world insight into the dynamics within the therapy room. The ‘try this instead’ pages offer genuinely useful alternatives—both to use with clients and to reflect on in your own practice.”
Therapist“A genuinely valuable resource for clinicians. As a trainee clinical psychologist, I found it especially helpful because it covers so many things that aren’t covered in training.”
Trainee Clinical Psychologist“Part 4, on sessions that start vaguely, was particularly relevant and practical. The other sections were a helpful refresher—valuable reminders that help therapists remain intentional and grounded in their work.”
