Synopsis
This is the standard guide advising counsellors how to deal with child abuse. It is a companion to the author's key work "Rescuing The Inner Child". Aimed at the counsellor and therapist, it is a comprehensive manual of all the resources needed to work in this field. From advice on how to establish a rapport with a child and memory retrieval to relating to feelings of anger, guilt and shame, it is easy-to-use and is an invaluable companion. There is also a section on dealing with the counsellor's own feelings. It can be used as part of a structured self-help programme or it can be used by an individual who is attempting to take responsibility for their own problems. Penny Parks was abused as a child and began her struggle to recovery in her twenties when she developed Parks Inner Child Therapy. She is also the author of "Rescuing The Inner Child", a standard work already in its 8th printing.
