Contracts in Counselling & Psychotherapy

By Irene Stevens

Book Overview

When contracting with clients, practitioners need to consider a whole range of factors including: goals of counselling; theoretical orientation; brief or open-ended counselling; different personality types; and ethical and legal issues. This book provides a unique guide to the nature of counselling contracts, why they are needed and how they are made. For the Second Edition the book has been thoroughly updated to take account of the BACP ethical framework. Two new chapters have been added covering the legal aspects of contracting, and how to make contracts with trainees.
