| Fabulous book on AAT in Counseling, June 1, 2008 |
| Reviewer: Dr. Rise Vanfleet |
| Dr. Chandler's book is an essential addition to the literature on AAT. It's one of a kind with its focus on AAT in counseling. The book is comprehensive, easy to read, packed with useful, practical information as well as research. She covers the incredible benefits of AAT in counseling as well as risks. It's must reading for anyone hoping to involve animals in mental health work! I highly recommend it. |
