Dr Galbraith is Registrar for the BPS Qualification in Counselling Psychology and former Programme Director for the Doctorate in Counselling Psychology at the University of Wolverhampton. She has an independent consultancy and psychology practice.

'With contributions from founders, established professionals and relative newcomers, Dr Galbraith’s edited book offers an insider’s perspective of the most vibrant of psychological professions. It is a delight to see the multiple and intersecting strands of ethics, research and practice side by side, enriching as they do the pluralistic stance of this applied psychology. This is an accessible and easy to read introductory text that will find a place on every good psychology undergraduate reading list. The book will also be invaluable for those considering making the transition from interested outsider to trainee in the field.' - Professor Martin Milton, Regents University London, UK
