Beskrivning
Emotions are central to our humanity and yet, when it comes to social work, the experiences of joy are often forgotten or overlooked, while ‘difficult’ emotions like shame, anger, disgust, fear, and sadness are often dismissed as unprofessional.This groundbreaking book challenges the taboo around emotion in social work. The first of its kind, it uses international research and hundreds of practitioner interviews to explore emotions in social work, and to demonstrate how embracing all emotions can enhance practice, prevent emotional burnout, and strengthen motivation. Accessibly written and with a strong practical element, this book is an invaluable tool for turning complex and emotionally charged situations into rich opportunities for learning, enhancing resilience, and developing personal and professional growth.

“Meticulously researched and thoughtfully written, this book is an essential read for all social work professionals and students. It sets out, in powerful and persuasive arguments, why emotions are at the core of effective social work practice. Providing readers with knowledge of definitions and theories, techniques for recognising and capitalising on emotions in professional ways, and relatable case study chapters on specific emotions, it is the ‘go-to’ resource for all qualified and qualifying social workers on emotions in professional practice.” Karen Winter, Chair of the European Social Work Research Association
