This book examines the philosophy and constructs of counselling training and the 'balancing acts' by which students and trainers manage the complex demands placed upon them during the training process. The three main sections of the book explore key aspects of being trainers : the pressures and stresses involved, issues of gender and power; the complexities of co-training elements of training : academic and voluntary settings; negotiated and reflective learning; assessment; issues arising from the functions of groups experiences of being trainees : first hand accounts from practitioners of the challenges they faced in their training. The counsellors, trainers and supervisors who share their research and experience as reflective practitioners provide a clear analysis of the balancing act involved in any adult learning. Balancing Acts will provide practical advice and food for thought for new and experienced Counselling Trainers and will provide an insight into the learning process for students about to begin their own counselling training.
