Description

A comprehensive guide to psychiatry and mental health for counsellors and psychotherapists has long been lacking in training resources. This book aims to fill that gap, providing a detailed understanding of the mental health system, its theories, and practices. Written by a psychiatrist and counsellor, the text covers the organisation and delivery of mental health services in the UK, medical models of psychiatric diagnosis and treatment, main forms of mental disorder, and therapeutic approaches. It also includes practical guidance on working with individuals with diagnosed mental disorders and managing risk of suicide and self-harm. Suitable for continuing professional development and training, this book features activities, points for learning/discussion, and comprehensive references to support counsellors and psychotherapists in their work.
