Practice Wisdom: A Guide for Helping Professionals (SAGE Human Services Guides)

Providing a programme to generate personal awareness and growth, this book is aimed at practitioners and students in the helping professions. Describing learning experiences such as the use of journals, practice in dyads and role lay, Krill demonstrates how these help the student understand how his or her individual identity contributes to learning. He also discusses creativity, suggests ways of `breaking out′ of the constraints of categorical thinking and provides a model for training.
