If, like me, you already find Parts Therapy fascinating, you'll thoroughly enjoy this book. Although the technique has been in existence for quite some time, under many different guises, Roy Hunter has taken the basic concept devised by Charles Tebbets, which in turn was a variation on Ego State Therapy, and put his own spin on it.

In this book, he takes the reader through the step-by-step process of Client Centred Parts Therapy as he practices it and very thorough and comprehensive it is too! No-one who reads this book can fail to understand the process, as the author explains it so thoroughly that even a complete beginner would have no problem grasping the concept.

Put very simply, Roy Hunter becomes the Mediator or Facilitator who then negotiates Terms of Agreement between the conflicting parts of his client. The elegant way in which he accomplishes this is a joy to read about and makes you eager to use the technique with your next suitable client. Of course, we all know that what can sound very simple on paper can sometimes be extremely difficult to do, due to the complex nature of the average human being, who doesn't always perform as the text-books would have you believe they're supposed to. However, as with any technique, practise makes perfect and, should you choose to use it, Parts Therapy will prove to be another valuable tool in your therapeutic toolbox.
