Teach Yourself Counselling covers the many fundamental aspects of counselling and addresses what it involves, what are the main skills and how are they used. It helps the reader to decide for themselves whether they have what it takes to be a counsellor.

This comprehensive introduction includes the examination of the origins and theoretical models of counselling, details different counselling skills and examples of how they work and discusses the benefits of counselling skills in the work place as well as in personal relationships.

Aillen Milne (BA Hons, Diploma in professional counselling), the author, is a practicing counsellor. She worked within a young peoples' counselling service over a period of 7 years and currently works for a counselling agency which provides short-term counselling - both face to face counselling and counselling over the telephone - for many companies and organisations throughout the United Kingdom. Aileen also has a private practice.
