Assessment and Case Formulation in Counselling and Psychotherapy 2014

This is a thorough and well-structured piece of work, which brings in the recent work of excellent authorities such as Barbara Ingram. It is well arranged, with many examples and case vignettes, which bring the material to life in an engaging way. I enjoyed reading it, and would recommend it unreservedly.’

Conducting a competent assessment and case formulation can be a daunting task for trainee therapists engaging in clinical assessment for the first time. This book is designed to help, by unpicking the many aspects involved in assessment and case formulation across modalities, practice settings and client groups.

The book:

· Explores key elements of clinical assessment including diagnosis, risk assessment, ethical considerations and accounting for difference.

· Highlights the necessary skills, techniques and legal requirements at each stage of the process.

· Takes into account the impact of culture, context and theoretical and practical considerations.
