REVIEWS:

"Loving every page as I devour every word. I'm sure you've heard this many times. Your insight is profound, challenging and stirring. By the time I had reached page 40, I had two huge realizations of my own regarding family of origin issues. I welcomed the tears of healing."
- D.R., Canada

"Wow! At first glance I thought to myself here goes another one of those books that just keeps repeating itself. But no! By the time I reached "The Counseling Session," I began to look for my credit card. This is the best Effective Counseling Skills Text Book I have ever seen. And in just a few days I will have one as well. Thanks for the heads-up, and if anyone out in cycberland hasn't purchased this book, you are missing out."
– V.G., Counselor, Texas Treatment Services, Dallas

"I am still a student, but it is awesome to have such a wonderful resource to count on for real world advice. Thank you!"
- F.W., Alabama

"When first reading the text I was nervous about remembering everything that I was reading. The more I read the more it made sense and linked all together. I liked how it took you step-by-step into the situations that you may encounter. It was quite incredible how I would pause to ask a question, to have it answered only a few sentences later."
- L.M., Counselling Student, Alberta, Canada

"I think the practical wording of statements given throughout the text was very helpful in providing how to effectively communicate with clients. The text was written in a very practical way and the essential skills and interventions were well written and laid out in a way that was not too complex to grasp."
– G.P., Canada

"The text was written in a clear and understandable way. It taught me a variety of subjects such as respect and dignity for all clients. It showed ways of dealing with supporting and alleviating distress."
– R.R., Canada

"Thanks for the practical counseling skills information and program. It is a work of art that is truly from the heart and mind of a soldier. Anyone should take no thought and get the book. Thanks for sharing and opening my mind."
- J.W.H., USA
