An amazing little book in terms of child abuse therapy is one called Counselling For Toads by Robert de Board IBSN 978-0-415-17429-9. It covers counselling of adults relating to dealing with abuse suffered as a child, but interestingly it does it all through a metaphor of animals not humans discussing the issues that arise. It's another play on Toad of Toad Hall and other animals.
I am all in favour of encouraging any medium which encourages individuals at any age to revisit their childhood and face out the unresolved issues which they have lived with ever since. Recovery is achievable!

About Me
- Gerry Neale
- I have been fascinated for years by the ever-increasing research data emerging on the ways we can pattern our thinking to our benefit or our loss. Often we do not realise we have done it or what triggered it. Its origins can lay in our childhood or in our more recent past.It can affect dramatically how we can cope with change, trauma or taking on a new role or starting a new business or activity. I am intrigued by the discovery of cognitive tools which adults can use to rid themselves of the effects of inhibiting behaviour. It can inhibit a person in their performance at work as well as at play. I write and mentor on these topics, tailoring cognitive solutions for people and seek to promote any person or institution doing the same thing. I have written a novel called "Squaring Circles: From The Dark Into The Light", which I am excited about and it was published in June 2011 in paperback.
