About this title

About the Author

Pete Sanders worked for over 25 years as a counsellor, founded BAC Accredited counsellor training courses in Wigan and Manchester, and supervised counsellors for many years. He got fed up with the values of Education in Britain in the Thatcher years and left to set up PCCS Books with his wife, Maggie. He has written several books and articles on counselling and still dabbles at the fringes with odd contributions here and there. He now spends most of his time concentrating on creating a strong library of published person-centred literature through the work of PCCS Books.
