A Short Introduction to Psychotherapy is an accessible guide to the
field for anyone embarking on training or simply interested in
finding out more about psychotherapy. Mapping the development and
dimensions of contemporary practice, the book explores: " the
origins of psychotherapy " its applications in terms of modalities,
settings and client populations " central theoretical concepts "
the nature of training and career paths for qualified practitioners
" main critiques, both from within and outside psychotherapy. A
team of well-known and highly-regarded contributors examine issues
which have particular bearing on psychotherapy today. This includes
the changing roles for psychotherapists working in primary and
secondary care and the demand for practice to be more
'evidence-based'. A useful summary is provided of existing research

considers the effect that the proposed statutory registration will
have on the field. Christine Lister-Ford is a Director of the
