"Journaling can be as straightforward as taking pen in hand, opening to a blank page, and simply beginning. But imagine having access to a compendium of fifty journaling techniques and methods compiled by leading professionals from around the world. Transformational Journaling for Coaches, Therapists, and Clients is just such a resource. A rich and practical contribution to this ever-growing field." - Judy Reeves, writing teacher and author, A Writer's Book of Days.

This new book edited by Monk and Maisel is a powerful and practical resource for those who want to help themselves and help their clients survive and thrive in today's topsy-turvy world. You could spend thousands of dollars at conferences developing new skills and not get the value you will receive from this wonderful book. I highly recommend it." - Jed Diamond, PhD, author, The Enlightened Marriage and 12 Rules for Good Men.
