This book breaks new ground by relating mindfulness to all of the
other therapeutic approaches, across all the common presenting
problems in counselling & psychotherapy.
Mindfulness is increasingly recognised as an effective
therapeutic treatment with positive research outcomes evaluating
its success. Meg Barker responds to our growing consciousness of
mindfulness approaches, considering how its principles can inform
everyday therapeutic work. The book: - covers ways in which
mindfulness approaches complement each therapeutic approach, as
well as any potential conflicts and tensions that might arise
- spells out how a mindfulness approach would understand - and
work with - common presenting issues, including depression, anxiety
and addiction - brings together work on mindfulness from across
psychotherapy, science, and philosophy
- suggests possible future directions in mindfulness,
particularly those which emphasise the social component of
suffering.
This engaging and accessible book will appeal to all counselling
and psychotherapy students, as well as any therapist looking to
complement their own approach with mindfulness theory and practice.
Meg Barker is a senior lecturer in psychology at the Open
University.
