Slow Counseling: Emphasize the Healing Power of Relationships

Our modern world is speeding up; it has become fast in so many ways. Yet the important things take time. The Slow Food Movement was begun by an Italian who insisted that a good meal was meant to be enjoyed – in the preparation, in the eating and in the clearing up. In the world of counselling, fast therapies and one-pill fix-its skip past the soul work. Heart and soul prefer slow. ‘Fast’ skips the enjoyment – and the healing.

This book discusses the most effective and enjoyable ways of healing strained or broken relationships, drawing on advice and wisdom from a broad range of counsellors.
