"Miriam Taylor's [first book] is a major contribution to Gestalt therapy's growing catalogue of clinical literature... A clinically sound, theoretically grounded, and highly practical guide to working with victims of trauma... [the] presentation of the Window of Tolerance and the Integrative Model of Change are clinical gems", Peter Cole, Gestalt Review, Vol 20, No 1, 2016.
