✦ Synopsis
problems' largely in legal, social structural and political changes. Counselling to End Violence Against Women' is ultimately concerned with the need for all, grassroots and professional counsellors alike, to become activists. While it is likely that many will disagree with Whalen's position, this book ought certainly to encourage professional' counsellors to re¯ect deeply on where the `professional role' begins and ends and on the values and knowledge base which informs their practice.
