I believe that Counselling is about empowering people and as it’s World Book Day I would like to help that process by make the following reading recommendations. This isn’t an exhaustive list as I am continually learning and updating from such wonderful authors as these. These book recommendations are light, often funny reads which are also most […]
Online Counselling – what is it and why do it? We live in a transient time when, if you want it, the World can be our oyster but just because some of us seize that opportunity it doesn’t always mean that the journey is smooth.
