Successful social work practice is underpinned by knowledge,
theories and research findings from a range of related disciplines,
key among which is psychology. This timely book offers a grounded
and engaging guide to psychology's vital role at the heart of
contemporary social work practice. The book skilfully addresses
some of the central theoretical developments in psychology from an
applied perspective, and explains how these make essential
contributions to the methods and theory base of social work in ways
that foster critical evaluation and promote best practice. Written
by two authors with extensive backgrounds in psychology and social
work respectively as well as a deep understanding of the
intersections of the two this book delivers a unique synthesis of
perspectives and approaches, focusing on their application to the
lives of individuals and families. Each chapter contains reflective
points and case studies based on contemporary practice realities
which are related to the Professional Capabilities Framework for
Social Workers and also to the Health and Care Professions
Council's Standards of Proficiency. Times have never been more
challenging for social work and this book will be an invaluable
source of professional support within the ever-more complex
psychological worlds where social work takes place.
