An essential guide to professional development written for qualified practitioners as well as those nearing the end of their training. Written in a friendly and informal style, this new text seeks to capture the attention of the reader by addressing those concerns and questions most frequently raised by practitioners. Covering subjects which all practising counsellors, psychotherapists and counselling psychologists need to know about, including report writing and avoiding complaints, this text also outlines different avenues for career development for example research, supervision, training and management. The book provides the reader with practical hints and guidance in how to develop their professional career and organise their continuing professional development. The editors, Professor Stephen Palmer and Professor Robert Bor, are both highly qualified trainers and practitioners, and contributors have been selected on the basis of their familiarity with professional issues.
