Opis

This book brings together important, but less-explored, research into topics that are applicable to the field of counselling and psychotherapy. Each contributor has undertaken qualitative research into their chosen topic, and this book disseminates that research in a way that is accessible.

The book informs counsellors and psychotherapists, and those in allied professions who support and care for people, towards developing a greater awareness of issues that they may be confronted with, including sexuality after breast cancer in young, single women; the impact of pregnancy-loss on women who delayed childbirth and remain childless; adult reflections on being an only child; processing parental rejection on secondary school teachers; and the impact of inappropriately referred clients on the counselling trainee in placement.
