"I would recommend Supervision of Dramatherapy as a varied and comprehensive resource, not only for supervisors but for all dramatherapists." - Kate Kent, Dramatherapy, Vol. 31, No. 1, Spring 2009"The book promises to be an experts' view of contemporary practices in dramatherapy supervision. [It] delivers on its promise, covering a wide range of issues that arise in the supervision process, presenting...the challenges of supervising student therapists who are working with different populations. [The book] addresses some of the most challenging aspects of therapeutic work and the issues that can arise in supervision with any population. It is thorough and engaging and I enjoyed Jones and Dokter's use of quotes from supervisors and supervisees on their experience inthe supervision process." - Bonnie Harnden, M.A., R.D.T. in Canadian Art Therapy Association Journal, Vol. 22, No. 1"This book is timely in the way that it reviews the supervisory needs of professionals who work with a range of clients. The findings are backed up by current research, including looking at and evaluating aims and outcomes." - Pat Havell, ACP North London Magazine, February 2010
