Review
"This book is engaging from the outset. It was full of visual images and useful metaphors, passionate and personal and at the same time demonstrating a clarity and precision in the author s use of models and application... It is full of good ideas, interesting examples and anecdotes and pure vision. This is a book I will most definitely be buying and will recommend to any supervisor or training supervisor ."

particular contribution to this stream of practice, thinking and writing, is her ability to integrate and simplify many of the approaches and to present to the new supervisor a book that is both easy to read and full of practical ways of organising their supervision. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did and that it enriches your ability to reflect on your own practice as well as enable others to do the same ."

With Clinical Supervision Made East you get what is stated in the title: a complex subject becomes accessible to supervisors and supervisees at different levels of development ."
