Rezensionen

'Solution-Focused Therapy is an excellent book, especially for existing counsellors wishing to expand their skills. O'Connell's description of SFT is clear, succinct and engaging. And, as always, he maintains an open door to other counselling models thus creating a boradly-based school in which many different ideas and practices can join together under one roof' -
Chris Iveson, Founder Member of the Brief Therapy Practice

'An excellent book! O'Connell's description of SFT is clear, succinct and engaging. As always, he maintains an open door to other counseling models, creating a broadly-based school in which many different ideas and practices can join together'
Chris Iveson, founder member of BRIEF, Europe's largest solution-focused brief therapy training organisation

'This book is well connected with the wider counselling and therapy literature. It will particularly appeal to those coming to SF therapy from a related field, making connections and links and reinforcing many lessons' -
