| Summary |
"Counselling Suicidal Clients addresses the important professional considerations when working with clients who are suicidal. The 'bigger picture', including legal and ethical considerations and organizational policy and procedures is explored, as is how practitioners can work with the dynamics of suicide potential in the therapeutic process." "The book also includes chapters on the discourse of suicide, suicide and self-injury, and self-care for the counsellor. It is written for counsellors and psychotherapists, and for any professional who uses counselling skills when supporting suicidal people." --Book Jacket |
