Marianne

Alan Frater's work on using imagination within therapeutic practice gives a theoretical understanding of the use of images and imagination. As a relational integrative psychotherapist, I find the imagination to be a powerful tool available to many clients and yet it can be so often dismissed and not utilised.

This was a superb session, thank you Allan. Such a gentle and tentative approach with powerful, insightful outcomes in the demonstration. Really thought provoking on so many levels! Can highly recommend.
