Description
Understanding and working with relationships is at the heart of effective social work practice. This book explores the principles and approaches that underpin relationship-based social work, drawing on a range of theoretical frameworks and real-world examples.
Through case studies and reflective discussions, the authors examine how to navigate complex relationships in practice, including those marked by strong emotions such as anger, hopelessness, and love. They also explore the importance of sustaining and developing these relationships over time.
Written for social workers and other practitioners, this book offers a comprehensive guide to relationship-based practice, with practical insights and theoretical foundations. It is an essential resource for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of this key aspect of social work.
