It is widely acknowledged that research is an essential component of the counselling and psychotherapy core curriculum. Therapists and all care practitioners not only need to be able to understand and evaluate research literature, but are also increasingly expected to carry out simple practitioner research to monitor their own practice. With its emphasis on practice-based evidence, this book provides a much-needed, reliable and accessible introduction by two trusted and well-known authors. It builds confidence by not only outlining contemporary methodologies in everyday language, but also by explaining how to approach, understand and evaluate a range of published research. Written for complete beginners in the tried and tested, best-selling style of the other books in the "Steps" series, the book covers first principles through to the development of a simple research project. In simple terms "First Steps in Practitioner Research" provides a 'how to understand and do it' resource for students, tutors and practice supervisors with little or no previous experience.

This fourth, updated and revised edition of this bestselling classic offers essential guidance to student counsellors and psychotherapists starting out on their training. Most books about training focus on the training; this book is about you, the trainee and student, and your needs. Written by two highly experienced trainers/lecturers, Step in to Study Counselling and Psychotherapy will be your friend and guide across this new terrain. An array of voices from the world of counselling and psychotherapy training also contribute their expertise on the topics discussed. Training in counselling and psychotherapy demands much of the trainee in terms of what you give of yourself to the process, as well as the academic and practice skills required to successfully complete the course. This book will help you choose your course and where to study, fund it, manage your relationships with fellow trainees and teaching staff, prepare for and write/deliver your assignments, negotiate placements and follow your learning through into continuing professional development. It also covers clinical supervision, personal therapy, experiential learning and self-care, and - as a one-stop resource - it provides useful links to other sources of information and support.
Next Steps in Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice (3rd Edition)
A student's companion

This is the third edition of the very popular Next Steps in Counselling Practice, revised, updated and expanded to accompany today's counselling students on their journey towards qualification.Next Steps in Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice is aimed at the more advanced trainee and continues from where the PCCS Books classic First Steps in Counselling leaves off. Like First Steps in Counselling, it is intended as a companion guide, addressed directly to the student counsellor. It is not a theory textbook - there are plenty of those already on the market. Rather, it seeks to answer the many questions that may come up for the individual student counsellor while in training, drawing on the authors' accumulated experience as trainers and practitioners, and as one-time trainees themselves.This book is designed to be of use to and facilitate the learning of all counselling and psychotherapy students, irrespective of the theories that underpin their training programmes and their own approaches to practice. It is not about one model of therapy but about what informs best practice across all therapies.The first part of the book sets the scene, exploring 'human helping' in situations of distress and difficulty, and the place of counselling within that. The second part looks at the nature of the therapeutic relationship and human problems. Next comes the heart of the book - the section on the relationship in action, covering contracting, assessment, diagnosis and case formulation, counselling in difficult situations and the process of referring on. The fourth section looks more broadly at counselling in different contexts and settings and is written by contributors with specific expertise in these areas. These contributions cover anti-racist practice, using counselling skills in other professional contexts, working creatively, working online, and trauma-informed practice. The final, fifth section addresses continuing professional development as the student moves into practice, and deals with the issues of ethics, support and supervision, personal and professional development and reflection, reflexivity and research.In addition to acquiring particular knowledge and skills, becoming an effective therapist requires developing aspects of the self. This book will enable the student counsellor to learn about themself as well as discover new ideas and understand more deeply the skills required to be an effective practitioner.
