Reviews and Endorsements

Van Werde has developed an understanding of working with what he calls the 'grey area' where clients may dip in and out of psychosis. As a counsellor working in the field of mental health, I found this thought provoking and helpful. Pre-Therapy offers me a way of supporting someone at the edge of therapeutic viability and of bringing them back into therapeutic contact, in a way that is fully consistent with person centred therapy. It is deeply respectful of the client and an effective way of making therapy available to those who might otherwise be excluded.
