Most specialist mental health care is provided by nurses who use
face to face helping skills with a wide range of people in a
variety of contexts. This book puts therapeutic skills at the heart
of the nurse's role, with one central aim: to equip you with
knowledge to use in your practice, thus improving your ability to
deliver care. This book: * Will enable you to strengthen your core
therapeutic skills and broaden your knowledge to include other
practical therapeutic approaches * Collates in one place
information on a range of therapeutic approaches, from person
centred counselling, motivational interviewing and solution focused
approaches, through to day to day skills of challenging unhelpful
thoughts, de-escalating difficult situations, working with
families, and problem solving * Demonstrates application of theory
to practice through a variety of practical examples * Features
reader activities to facilitate personal growth and learning *
Includes a chapter exploring clinical supervision and how this
makes practice more effective Each chapter is grounded in authentic
clinical experiences and focuses on equipping the reader to develop
confidence in their client facing skills. This text is an essential
purchase for all mental health nurse students as well as qualified
nurses. "Whilst the essential therapeutic component of mental
health nursing is the nurse themselves, it is also essential that
they have knowledge and competencies to offer the client. This
valuable book offers the reader an introduction to a wide range of
approaches that are considered helpful, evidence based and
effective. Modern mental health nursing requires much of its
practitioners; this book will help inform and support that
endeavour." Ian Hulatt, Mental Health Adviser, Royal College of
Nursing, UK "This is a timely book which addresses, head on,
questions about what mental health nurses can do to be effective
with their patients. At last we have a book that mental health
nurses can draw on to understand why and how various therapeutic
approaches are used. The range is from cognitive behavioural
therapy, to psychodynamic approaches to mindfulness, with others in
between. Each chapter is written by an expert and each offers
concrete examples of what it involved in each of the approaches.
These examples are imperative if readers are to understand how to
use interventions in their everyday work. This ground breaking book
will be compulsory reading for everyone involved in the care of
those with mental health problems. A wonderful book." Philip
Burnard, Emeritus Professor of Nursing, Cardiff University, UK
