Summary
This substantially revised fifth edition of a classic text includes an updated preface, new content on the therapeutic relationship, substantially revised chapters on the middle phase of counselling and reflections on the influence of other modalities and shared aspects of practice across approaches. Each chapter now includes an annotated further listening section to help deepen knowledge and reinforce learning of key aspects of the counselling process.
Critic reviews
Brilliant, enlightening, practical. A gem of a book. (British Journal of Guidance and Counselling)
One of the most reliable (and readable) guides to what is involved in counselling...Jacobs' well-organized and comprehensive summaries of the main theories and his illustrations of psychodynamic counselling drawn from his own work will inspire students and trainees on counselling and therapy courses. They will also interest (and create envy) in more experienced readers. (Professor Andrew Samuels, Centre for Psychoanalytic Studies, University of Essex)
This is one of a very small number of books that manage to describe simply, but not simplistically, what analytic work involves. (British Journal of Medical Psychology)

Refreshing
A very good book which takes the reader through a demonstration of psychodynamic counselling by use of fictional clients from Dickens characters. Genius

in depth practical guide
currently working in a place that uses psychodynamic concepts, it is really helpful to get more detail on the method. would've preferred more case studies.

Ingenious work
The author takes what could be very dry material and brings it to life with very life like fictional characters. The narrator is great to listen to and his use of voices show his comprehension of the work.
