'Toad', the famous character in Kenneth Grahame's The Wind in the Willows is in a very depressed state and his good friends Rat, Mole and Badger, are 'worried that he might do something silly'...
First they nursed him. Then they encouraged him. Then they told him to pull himself together... Finally, Badger could stand it no longer. That admirable animal, though long on exhortation, was short on patience.
'Now look here Toad, this can go on no longer', he said sternly. 'There is only one thing left. You must have counselling!'
Robert de Board's engaging account of Toad's experience of counselling will capture the imagination of the growing readership of people who are interested in counselling and the counselling process. Written as a real continuation of life on the River Bank, Toad and his friends come to life all over again.
Heron, the counsellor, uses the language and ideas of transactional analysis as his counselling method. Through the dialogues which make up the ten sessions, or chapters of the book, Toad learns how to analyse his own feelings and develop his emotional intelligence. He meets his 'rebellious child' and his 'adult' along the way, and by the end of the book, as debonair as ever he was, is setting out on a completely new adventure. As readers learn about Toad, so they can learn about themselves and be encouraged to take the path of psychological growth and development.
Best-selling author, Robert de Board says: 'Toad's experiences are based on my own experiences of counselling people over a period of twenty years. Counselling for Toads is really an amalgamation of the many counselling sessions I have held and contains a distillation of the truths I have learnt from practice.'
Appropriate for anyone approaching counselling for the first time, whether as a student or as a client, or for the professional counsellor looking for something to recommend to the hesitant, Counselling for Toads will appeal to both children and adults of all ages.
Robert de Board is an organizational consultant based in Henley-on-Thames. He is the author of Counselling Skills (1994) and The Psychoanalysis of Organisations Routledge (1990).

在薄荷阅读里读完了这本书,内容还是很不错的,Heron在向Toad做咨询的时候很多观点都和李玫瑾老师心理抚养一书中类似,5岁前获得的感受和形成的思维观念,将会成为终身为人处世的底层架构,幼年时早期从家庭中获得的感受及应对情绪,会影响一个人终身的行为和幸福,关于Child State要是再讲的深一些就好了,莫名的就结束了,对于river bank那些狐朋狗友们的事真的不感兴趣,减掉一星。

适合作为了解心理学/自己的入门书,但还是浅了很多,相比之下更推荐那本maybe you should talk to someone. (大概叫这个)
