Sommerbeck provides a straightforward appreciation of the problems and offers solutions to working with clients with severe mental health problems. The book examines situations when the therapist feels outside their comfort zone and how to deal with them. In essence, it covers the areas that many academic courses don't teach.

For students, academics and professional audiences, this book presents accounts of the practice of the person-centred approach with people suffering from a range of severe and enduring conditions. Comprehensively refuting the notion that person-centred therapy is suitable only for the 'worried well', it backs up contemporary practice with appropriate theory. Contributions from international leaders in theory and practice.
