520 _a"Roles and Contexts in Counselling Psychology provides discussions of typical contexts that counselling psychologists work within, providing a snapshot of the 'day job'. The book provides insights into roles that reflect the human lifespan from birth to death, focusing upon specific mental health experiences and considering roles external to healthcare settings such as expert witness and independent practice. Each chapter is written by a counselling psychologist, provides an overview of their own experiences and specialism of the role, thus bringing a unique transparency and personal insight. The book talks about the skills that are required for the day-to-day role, the challenges and personal reflections experienced through it. It also discusses how the philosophy of counselling psychology is maintained as well as ethical and legal considerations in the role. It further takes a note of the issues relating to leadership and diversity. The book is an essential resource for undergraduate psychology and counselling students, trainee clinical or counselling psychologists as well as qualified practitioners"--
