Six Key Approaches to Counselling and Therapy

`A succinct, up-to-date account, which makes available the complexity of Jung's metapsychology to the interested reader.' Ann Casement, Analytical Psychologist, Licensed Psychoanalyst

`Excellent summary of Rogers' life and work. A thoroughly up-to-date introduction to person-centred therapy.' Brian Thorne, Emeritus Professor of Counselling, University of East Anglia, and co-founder of the Norwich Centre

`Clear, thorough and succinctly summarizes cognitive therapy's most important concepts and principles.' Dr Judith Beck, President, Beck Institute for Cognitive Therapy and Research, Philadelphia

Following a clearly-defined structure, each chapter describes the origin of the therapeutic approach, a biography of its originator, its theory and practice, discusses case material and further developments, and suggests additional reading. Richard Nelson-Jones goes on to review and evaluate all the approaches in his concluding chapter.

This authoritative and practical textbook is a vital resource for students on introductory courses and those who are starting out on professional training.
