This text explains how new counsellors - and those with more experience - can develop and improve their skills within the cognitive-behavioural approach. The authors examine areas such as: refining assessments and planning strategies accordingly; monitoring and sustaining the client's motivation; using emotive and further cognitive techniques; and making progress with personality disorder clients. The book also contains various practical hints showing how counsellors can improve their counselling skills.
