The late Jenny Grut worked as a psychotherapist for the Medical Foundation where she set up the Natural Growth Project in 1992. Born in Argentina, she lived and worked in Britain for 17 years. Her training in transpersonal psychotherapy provided a natural stepping-stone for this unique work, since it incorporates a spiritual dimension. Sonja Linden is a playwright and short story writer and has edited plays, poetry and short fiction. As Writer in Residence for the Medical Foundation, she set up the Write to Life Project to help refugees and asylum seekers
'It is with pride and a certain humility that I commend this book to its readers, for if anything reflects the human spirit and the capacity to overcome appalling adversity and loss, this chronicle of painstaking and creative endeavour will be an illustration and a guide...an inspiring and profound project best understood through the case studies which are contained in the book.' Helen Bamber, Director of the Medical Foundation for the Care of Victims of Torture
