100 illustrated worksheets for managing complex emotions, coping with change and building self-esteem as part of therapeutic work
Jennifer Guest has worked in clinical therapeutic practice as a counsellor for 14 years, working with adults, couples and young people in a variety of counselling centres and schools in the North of England. Jennifer is an Accredited Member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and has an honours degree in Art and Design. Currently she works for Relate, a charity that provides counselling services, and has her own private practice based in Yorkshire.
Without being overly prescriptive, this book provides a wide range
of starting points for conversation and artistic exploration across
a range of therapeutic themes. The worksheets are aesthetically
appealing and provide space and inspiration for responses in
whatever form or media feels most comfortable. Designed to be
dipped in and out of, it will support the formation of a strong
therapeutic alliance and help to gently push open doors that
talking alone could not tackle."

Jennifer Guest has created a practical, theoretically grounded book
for practitioners to stimulate and support clients'
self-exploration and discovery. This book will be a useful addition
to your resources if you integrate creative/visual arts in
practice.
*Pam Fisher, Dance Movement Psychotherapist in private
practice*
This attractive and accessible resource offers a rare blend of
useful resources within a clear theoretical framework. It will be
useful across many therapeutic and 'skilled helping' contexts,
including schools, and I plan to introduce it to Mental Health
Champions in Bradford Schools.
