Inspired by Stefan

“I purchased this after attending a CPD lecture by Stefan and feeling inspired. His enthusiasm and passion for the subject is infectious. I really enjoy Stefan's way of making these tools accessible and understandable. I really appreciate that everything is clear, actionable and relatable. For me this book creates a bridge for the book being useful for therapists and people who are interested in learning tools to support themselves. Only received this yesterday and already half way through, would absolutely recommend.

Thanks Stefan for all of your hard work.”​— Verified Amazon Buyer

A definite "Go to" resource

I have the original Penny Model on Kindle and so was pleased to hear about the revised and expanded edition of the Penny Model which I bought last week. It doesn't disappoint – A great resource – a “Go to” for anyone working to better understand themselves, their emotions self limiting beliefs and how they relate to their world. There are pearls of wisdom and insights to be found on every easily accessible bite-size chapter, cleverly teasing out each concept with metaphor, helping to make them both memorable and relatable.

Accessible, simple, powerful and effective​

"The Penny Model is a fascinating, delightful, and ground-breaking book, and it's going to be of help to millions of people. Instead of sophisticated and complex psychological concepts that are difficult to understand and even harder to follow, Stefan Charidge has produced a book which sets everything out in a simple and straightforward way using metaphors that everybody will understand.It doesn't matter how slight or how serious your emotional challenges may be: either way, this book is going to help you. Whether you're experiencing anything from mild anxiety to extreme forms of dissociation and self-harm, or just a feeling of low mood, lack of motivation, or sadness, or unreasonable anger, you'll find everything you need to recover control of your life and your feelings in this book.Stefan has refused to fall into the all-too-common trap of using sophisticated psychological language; instead he writes in simple, straightforward language we can all relate to -- and he deserves our thanks and acclamation for this.Often self-help books are couched in psychological language which seem more designed to convince the reader of the author's qualifications than to help the person who's actually got the emotional challenge! Stefan doesn't fall into this trap in any way. Although he's very well trained, highly qualified and very experienced, his writing in this book is accessible to everyone.Writing from the perspective of a fellow professional, The Penny Model comes highly recommended. Indeed I would suggest this is the first book you buy if you're looking for psychological or emotional support.
