Showing practical competence through the production of client reports and case studies is a key aspect of training therapists and other mental health professionals. This Classic Edition of Reporting in Counselling and Psychotherapy offers a unique hands-on guide to this element of practical work. Using clinical examples to guide the reader, and a detailed analysis of case study and process report writing, it shows readers how to present clear, concise and properly presented reports.
This book remains an invaluable tool, not only for those embarking on practical training in psychotherapy, counselling and psychology, but also for trainers in these areas and for clinicians writing clinical reports or case presentations.
Reviews and Endorsements
This book was and continues to be an essential, demystifying resource for counselling psychology, counselling and psychotherapy trainees facing the daunting task of writing their first case study or process report. It retains its role as a key resource for trainees learning how to report and reflect on their therapeutic work. A task that is undoubtedly one of the most important learning opportunities that trainees engage with on their journeys to becoming qualified practitioners.
