Over five million copies sold worldwide and translated into seven languages!
For over twenty-five years Counselling for Toads has provided audiences with a warm and engaging introduction to counselling, brought to life by Toad and his friends from Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows.
Over the course of ten sessions, which correspond to chapters of the book, a very depressed Toad learns how to analyze his own feelings and develop his emotional intelligence using the language and ideas of transactional analysis. He meets his 'rebellious child' and his 'adult' along the way and by the end of the book, Toad is setting out on a completely new adventure—as debonair as he ever was.
Listeners will learn about the counselling process and themselves as they join Toad on his journey from psychological distress to psychological growth and development. A must-listen for anyone approaching counselling for the first time, whether as a student or as a client, or for the professional counsellor looking for something to recommend to the hesitant.
