Self-help β¦ Penny’s Take
Contemporary Body Psychotherapy
Linda Hartley Β· 2008
72/100
π Worth It
As a practitioner-focused volume documenting a specific integrative body-psychotherapy model from one of the UK's established training centres, this earns its place on a clinician's shelf β the trauma-informed perspective and self-regulation framework are timely, and Routledge publication ensures editorial rigor. General readers or those without a somatic therapy background will find it inaccessible, but within its intended professional audience it is a credible and substantive contribution.
β¦ Penny’s Take β this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read β not a page-by-page personal one. The gold β Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
