Abstract

There is wisdom in the saying that ‘To a person with a hammer everything looks like a nail’. As a therapist my hammer is talking, naturally and inevitably, and most things look like they need talking. But, there are times when I put my talking tool aside and select another tool and my three tennis balls are one of the tools for which I reach.
