Therapy Toolkit: Sixty Cards for Self-Exploration Cards – 19 Aug. 2021

Beautiful illustrations, and a comprehensive booklet and information on the back of each card. Supporting you through the process of self exploration. Really useful and great value for money.

These are excellent cards: great pictures and written explanations. Very useful in a therapy session when a client cannot find the right words.

Beautiful, eye catching & interesting cards that will help to explore things that wouldn't necessarily even be in our awareness

As a trainee therapist I have been exploring more creative ways to engage my clients and hear from them. Pictures are quite thought provoking. These pictures are beautiful. There is a beautiful mix. I like that there are separate themes within the pack. The descriptions are great - they bring in some history, clarification of definition and prompt for further discussion. I cannot wait to use these with a client.

Used in a classroom setting, counselling training course.Worked well with my students. Helped them to reflect and gain further insight.Excellent quality cards and presentation. Realistic price.Highly recommend for using with clients in therapeutic setting, in teaching and personal development courses.Thank you Linn Martinsen for creating this wonderful tool.

Really good resource. Excellent images on the cards which you could use in many ways e.g. asking someone to choose the image that resonated with them and exploring their projection onto the image. Very well written text on the back of the cards, easily understandable by the client. My only minor quibble is that I wish the cards were gloss!

Just wish they had more prompts for journaling :)

These cards have proven very effective in opening up discussions in therapy.Grouped in different sections they are well designed to work in therapy

FOR SELF-THERAPYI know this publisher does a lot of great quality unique decks with lots of cards for a very affordable price. I also have their Dream Decoder and Feminist Oracles. This is an exceptional tool that will take you to places when you use it as a tool for journaling and self-reflection. It is able to really get quickly to a variety of issues that you may have repressed and the questions help you work through this. I typically pull one and explore it in my journal. It's always able to help me resolve issues in general. To think that for $17 you can access a kind of therapy which is definitely better than doing nothing. The good thing is you can control the pace and what you focus on.AS ORACLE CARDSI also like to use these as oracle cards when I do tarot readings. They give a lot more concreteness to readings and the background of issues. You can also use the images and read them just intuitively or use just the backs to link the issues to gather in your reading. I really enjoy it all. Using it in this way I shuffle with my question in mind and then allow the number of cards I want to use to come out - often 1, 2 or 3 cards. Then I look at the info on the backs and then flip the images around to read it semi-intuitively. After that I can clarify with tarot cards. It often very accurate for myself and others and gives great insight into the reason behind the querent's actions or the issues they struggle with currently.CONCLUSIONThe card stock is sturdy as most of the Laurence King decks are but this one has matte and seemingly uncoated paper. My only worry is that they will get grimy quickly from handling without the coating on the cards. However they are affordable enough to buy a back-up. Great gift for someone who you know is going through a healing journey or for use personally. It will help you resolve so much over time with consistent use.

Het deck bestaat uit 60 kaarten met een afbeelding en bijhorende tekst aan de achterzijde. De afbeeldingen zijn eenvoudig en mooi, de teksten geven de nodige inzichten en stof tot nadenken. Zeker een aanrader! De kaarten zijn gedrukt op karton zonder afwerkingslaag, dat maakt ze vlekgevoelig en niet duurzaam. Vandaar dat ik 1 ster aftrek. Aangezien ik van Amazon België voor de zoveelste keer een geopend exemplaar ontving met een beschadigde doos zal ik de kaarten terug sturen en zal ik deze set ergens anders opnieuw kopen. Om de kaarten duurzamer te maken ga ik ze zelf lamineren

Verwende die Karten im Moment selbst, möchte sie demnächst in der Arbeit mit Menschen verwenden, die nicht so leicht ins reden kommen.

好きなYouTuberさんが使っていて気になり購入しました。元々セラピー用に作られているためか、絵柄はポジティブなものも多少ありますが、その裏面にある説明はほぼ心のネガティヴな部分を取り扱っているような内容です。明るそうに見えてもそうじゃない、暗そうなやつは見たまんまなデッキです。なのでリーディングに使う際は他のカードと合わせて見たまんま・書いてある通りの解釈か、またはそうじゃなくて絵柄やタイトルから説明・絵の雰囲気とは全く違うものをインスピレーションで感じ取るか、みたいな感じで使用しています。紙質は葉書と同じくらいの厚さ・耐久性って感じで、ラミネート加工はなしです。でも加工がない他のカードよりも、濡れたらフニャフニャになりやすそうな感じです。カードのサイズは通常のオラクルカードくらいですが紙質のせいかシャッフル時にこぼれ落ちそうになります。ボックスは通常のオラクルカードよりもひと回りくらい大きくてしっかりした箱です。カードの説明は絵柄の裏にあって、文章がびっしり！長い！と毎回感じてしまいます 汗。心理的なことが書かれていますが、難しい内容・英語じゃありません。でも専門家に言われないと素人には気づかない感じのことが書いてあります。セラピー目的で使用している訳じゃないんですが、出てきたカードに古い傷がうずいて心のブロックが映し出されてくる感じがあり、リーディングする度に痛みを通して隠し続けて麻痺していた本音の感情に出逢います。面白いデッキです。１つこういうのを持っているのはタロットリーディングに多いに役立つと思います、慣れればの話ですけど 笑！

One of my new favorite things to play with friends. The questions are super deep and really brought up some stuff we'd forgotten about!
