Praise for the previous edition:"...an excellent resource for all
trainee and beginning counsellors irrespective of theoretical
orientation. I regard it as a core text for Professional and
Clinical Practice components of counsellor education and training
courses." Ian Horton, formerly Principal Lecturer, University of
East LondonPraise for the current edition:"This book is a must. It
informs the beginner and experienced counsellor howto undertake
brief counselling, step by step, from orienting the client
tocounselling, to termination of counselling." Professor Stephen
Palmer, City University, London and Director for the Centre for
Stress Management.Almost two thirds of counsellors and
psychotherapists work with clients in up to twenty sessions each:
this book reflects that reality and the challenges involved. The
bestselling first edition of this book, by two of the UK's leading
counsellor trainers and academics, was praised by trainers and
tutors for its accessibility, comprehensiveness and practicality.
It was also a leading contribution to the movement towards
time-conscious counselling and to an understanding of the
therapeutic alliance across time. The second edition has been
thoroughly updated to include significant recent professional
developments and new thinking in the counselling field. Additions
include more detailed discussion of: Assessment Contracting Very
brief counselling Clinical reasoning Clients' modalities Technical
repertoire Depression and realism Supervision of brief counselling
In the rapidly maturing profession of counselling, this book's
sensitivity to time as a precious resource, clients' perceptions,
evidence-based guidelines and integration of some of the best
thinking from several counselling models make it an ideal core text
for beginners and reflective practitioners. Thoughtful and busy
practitioners in primary care, employee counselling, educational,
voluntary and private practice settings will find many immediately
helpful ideas and examples in this classic text.
