In this book, counsellors from different backgrounds §describe what they bring of themselves to therapy §and how their self might impact on clients. The §counsellors describe the counsellor''s self as a §multifaceted, integrated and, in the main, a §positive entity. This self includes counsellors'' §professional knowledge and skills as well as their §beliefs, values, thoughts, feelings, personal style §and an unknown aspect of self that some referred to §as their unconscious. Counsellors were clear that §the presence of self was inevitable, as well as §offering them a deliberate tool that they might §employ. Various self enactments were highlighted, in §particular the use of self in the therapeutic §alliance. The implications for training, practice §and supervision are explored also. Overall, this §book highlights the importance of self that §counsellors bring to their work, and provides a §discussion of how the presence of self might most §effectively be utilised when working with clients.
