Product reviews for Healing Scripts

Tom Barber . Course Director - Contemporary College of Therapeutic Studies
For those working with trauma and stress this book is a very useful addition to their library. Indeed any therapist working with these conditions will find the ideas and strategies in Marlene Hunters book a valuable source of practical help to refer to.

Rather than being dogged down by the mechanics of trauma and stress 'Healing Scripts' gives the reader clear background information on the likes of pain, stress, panic and anxiety disorders, including phobias.

Useful sections on depression and bereavement are included. The suggested scripts offer much to the practitioner to adapt and build their therapy, which is always a welcome tonic when devising how to approach treatment patterns.

The book is rounded off by exploring practical treatment strategies within dissociative disorders, an area far more common than we may recognise with clients and patients, which adds to a deeper knowledge of how to approach such areas.

The book finishes with some insight into working with children that will be helpful to any therapist faced with this client group.

Overall the book will appeal to those new to working with the types of trauma and stress conditions described and will excite experienced practitioners with the simplicity of some of the suggestion scripts used in treating them.
