Stress Management in Human Services (SAGE Human Services Guides)

By Lynn Hunt Monahan and Richard E. Farmer

Using a practical, preventative approach the authors isolate sources of personal and organizational stress, that have been identified in some of the staff employed in the social and human services. The conclusion of the authors is that stress management involves individual choice; the level of stress has been linked to the ability of an individual to choose and actively control the direction and circumstances of life. The book focuses on those issues that produce occupational stress, and ways of reducing such stress, and outlines principles that are widely applicable, to public administration and business as well as to the human services.
