Counselling for Psychosomatic Problems by Diana J Sanders

Counselling for Psychosomatic Problems by Diana J Sanders

New approaches from cognitive therapy have made significant advances towards helping clients with psychosomatic problems. This practical and comprehensive guide describes a cognitive way of working with clients who present for counselling with physical symptoms, but where psychological issues or problems are causing or maintaining those symptoms.

`There are all too few texts on the clinical challenges of working in health careDiana Sanders... writes in a jargon-free style and includes helpful case examples to illustrate the interventions under discussion... She writes illuminatingly on the detailed processes of applying cognitive therapy in health care′ - The Psychologist

`Diana Sanders writes clearly and coherently within the cognitive model, making it accessible to those counsellors and psychotherapists who do not work in this way. The book is obviously grounded in clinical experience and she illustrates her points with plausible imaginary case examples which bring the text alive... for any counsellor working within a GP practice and of interest to those in private practice′ - Counselling, The Journal of the British Association for Counselling

Diana Sanders is a counselling psychologist with the Oxfordshire Mental Healthcare NHS Trust and a research psychologist at Oxford University. Her publications include Coping with Periods (Chambers, 1985).
