Roles and Contexts in Counselling Psychology Summary

Roles and Contexts in Counselling Psychology: Professionals in Practice by Daisy Best

Roles and Contexts in Counselling Psychology looks at the different contexts that counselling psychologists typically work within, offering a snapshot of the 'day job'.

The book provides insights into roles that reflect the human lifespan from birth to death, focusing upon specific mental health experiences and considering roles external to healthcare settings such as expert witness and independent practice. Each chapter is written by a counselling psychologist and offers an overview of their particular specialism and their experiences within it, bringing a unique transparency and personal insight. The book describes the skills that are required for the different roles and their challenges and rewards. It also discusses how the philosophy of counselling psychology is maintained and explores the associated ethical and legal considerations. Further, it takes note of the issues relating to leadership and diversity.

The book is an essential resource for undergraduate psychology and counselling students and trainee clinical or counselling psychologists, as well as qualified practitioners.

Roles and Contexts in Counselling Psychology Reviews

This book is an important collection which will be of use not only to counselling psychologists but also to many others in the field of mental health and human well-being. Counselling psychology is all too often considered to be simply counselling and, while that can form an invaluable part of the work, consists of very much more. This book eloquently highlights many of the other domains and endeavours which the profession works within.

'What do counselling psychologists actually do? This exciting and innovative new collection of chapters throws light on the many different areas of counselling psychology practice, and the wide range of clients that counselling psychologists work with. A much needed addition to the literature in the field.'
