About this listen

A book on counselling skills for students of counselling and psychotherapy

  • High quality reference links to podcasts, articles and downloads to support your learning.
  • Written in easy-to-understand (non-academic) language
  • Counselling skills theory decoded into plain English
  • Bonus downloadable audio files that demonstrate skills in action
  • Listen on your smartphone, tablet or computer
  • The perfect skills book for any student of counselling or psychotherapy
  • Easy reference to complement your studies

In my book, I go beyond offering just a theoretical definition of what a skill is and an explanation of what it does in a counselling relationship.
I share a deeper look into the skills and explore a more philosophical explanation from my own experience as a practising therapist and former counselling tutor - Kenneth Kelly

I like this because it’s very direct to the point and simple. I think this is a good starting point for anyone with an interest in counselling because it will give you a few things that you can immediately start working on. This book is probably even useful If you’re just looking to improve your communication skills.

An excellent short introduction to counselling practice

I am a studying L3 Counselling and this book helps demonstrate some of the basic skills being used, the context they are used in and how they get results when used in the right place at the right time. The book clarifies and reinforces the course material and very easy to follow.

I wish i discovered this book when I was training. Now that I have completed my course, I find that it can be a lonely journey even when you have a support network. This is because the collective learning environment that training provides encourages more reflections. This book however, invites you to reflect on different aspects as you continue to practice. It has also plugged holes in my learning and is a book I can refer back to for refocusing. I see it as the basic foundation of person centred counselling. Thank you for putting this together.

It's simplicity and illustrations
