Counselling - Becoming informed through books...

If you wish to improve your quality of life, are looking for help with life, marriage, career and so on, counselling and/or psychotherapy may be an option for you. However, some find the thought of going into counselling frightening or traumatic. For others it is the fear of stepping into the unknown that stops them seeking counselling.

There is also the very real problem of how you choose one counsellor over another when they are using different counselling models? This could be a big problem if you know little or nothing about what you might be looking for? You must always ask the counsellor about how they work if you are unsure, of course, but some people still like to investigate this information for themselves.

This is why Psychohelp.co.uk's Counselling Books lists below a set of counselling books that may help you make an informed decision on if counselling is for you.
