Voted one of the top 10 Occupational Therapy in Mental Health Books of 2020!Written by three occupational therapists, this book provides a rationale for and practical advice for incorporating a solution-focused approach into mental health practice. "It is a valuable resource for anybody working in the fields of mental health and disability, regardless of professional discipline. It is not only for occupational therapists but also for psychiatrist, psychologists, social workers and nurses.It demonstrates a respectful, structured and realistically optimistic way of talking with troubled people so that their own strengths and resources are highlighted. They emphasise ways of eliciting the clients'' ideas about what will improve matters rahter than promoting the professional''s. As the writer Pascal said, ''People are generally better persuaded by the reasons which they have themselves discovered than by those which have come into the minds of others''This book is clearly written and almost completely free of jargon. It contains many useful case examples and suggestions for generative question, and the authors have avoided the book becoming a therapy-by-numbers ''cook-book''. I strongly recommend it."Brian Cade - Primary author of A Brief Guide to Brief TherapyThis is ebook is also available in hard copy from BTPress.
