First published in 1996, this is the standard textbook for students wishing to understand the key counselling and psychotherapy approaches. No other book goes into as much depth as each expert contributor presents a comprehensive overview of the theory and practice of their established approach to individual therapy practice.

This best-selling, practical, evidence-based guide to the cognitive behavioural approach takes trainees step-by-step through the process of counselling, from initial contact with the client to termination and follow up.
