Psychotherapists, counsellors and psychologists all help with emotional difficulties, mental well-being concerns, or simply when life's difficulties are just too troubling. Actually, there is a huge overlap between these three professions because they are all part of the Talking Therapies. Their differences are more in their purposes than in their professional boundaries.
Counselling is more to do with listening, comforting and self-understanding. Psychotherapy is more to do with problem solving and finding 'cures'. Psychology is the scientific study of the human mind. Generally speaking counselling is less intensive and deals with the lesser emotional problems.

Report
The counselling stories told here are actually composites made up from a number of case histories. No real names have been used. I did this to protect the confidences of all my clients. Confidentiality is a very important issue in counselling and psychotherapy. All my clients can be assured that nothing about them is ever disclosed to any third party without their explicit consent.

Norman Claringbull is a skilled story-teller, and the narrative he unfolds in this text is nothing less than the evolution of the talking therapies from the ancient world to the current day. The result is a remarkably engaging and accessible resource which will help equip both trainees and seasoned practitioners to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century from an informed and considered position.
