This brief version is likely to be used in other settings where a longer treatment may not be feasible.

Starting with the previous version, the program pays more attention to variability in how fast or slow a client is able move through the treatment, improving the patient—treatment 'match'.

Therapists and all care practitioners not only need to be able to understand and evaluate research literature, but are also increasingly expected to carry out simple practitioner research to monitor their own practice. With its emphasis on practice-based evidence, this book provides a much-needed, reliable and accessible introduction by two trusted and well-known authors. It builds confidence by not only outlining contemporary methodologies in everyday language, but also by explaining how to approach, understand and evaluate a range of published research. Written for complete beginners in the tried and tested, best-selling style of the other books in the \"Steps\" series, the book covers first principles through to the development of a simple research project. In simple terms \"First Steps in Practitioner Research\" provides a 'how to understand and do it' resource for students, tutors and practice supervisors with little or no previous experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI had the strangest feeling as I started to read the manuscript. Within a few pages I began to ask myself if Pete or Paul had invisibly sat on my shoulder during my classes, taken note of the issues that had confused the students, that they had worried about, struggled with and\/or needed to know - and then gone away determined to address all of their questions and concerns - Dr Leonie Sugarman, Reader in Applied Psychology, University of Cumbria  A uniquely valuable resource for students in the field of counselling and the helping professions.  Succinct, comprehensive and highly accessible, it provides a wonderful support for those taking the first steps towards conducting, and understanding, research. Mick Cooper, Professor of Counselling, University of Strathclyde - this is the book I have been waiting for...a user-friendly book on research which is specific to the helping professions. I am delighted to see it in print. Rosemary Smith, Moray College - a no nonsense, practical and intelligent guide through the key issues involved in undertaking research - It is jam packed with valuable information and provides  clear explanations of a wide range of methodologies and perspectives - all presented in an accessible way. The sections on understanding statistics are especially clear and will prove incredibly useful to practitioners who may find quantitative research daunting. Dr. Helen Spandler, Senior Research Fellow, University of Central Lancashire - the whole point is to entertain, draw in, seduce, or somehow lure nervous counselling students into the whole research thing. Robert Elliot, Professor of Counselling at Strathclyde University, Past President of the Society for Psychotherapy Research  Practitioners conducting psychotherapy and counselling gain unique perspectives as they work with people confronting and overcoming obstacles that life has placed in their paths. A puzzle is how practitioners can convey their perspectives systematically to others. In this volume, two acknowledged leaders in the field, Pete Sanders and Paul Wilkins, point the way. They are accomplished writers who know their audience as well as their craft - Sanders and Wilkins do not avoid complexity, but they explain complex concepts plainly, pointing out which ideas are essential for beginners and which can be left for later.

Helen Kewell seeks to address this often overlooked topic with a vibrant collection of resonant case studies describing her encounters with some of the old and very old clients with whom she has worked as a counsellor. Woven into these accounts are her personal reflections on how working with these clients has changed her and contributed to her own growth as a counsellor and as a human being. She also describes the theoretical and philosophical works that have influenced her practice - looking to humanistic, existentialist and person-centred approaches to guide her in this largely uncharted territory. Among the people described in this book, we meet Maggie, for whom death is very close and whose day-to-day experiencing is insular, private and diminished to one room and a few hours of wakefulness. We meet Kate, for whom reawakened feelings from long ago and the challenge to strongly held beliefs prove too much to face. We meet Bobby, who valiantly engages in reassessing and reconstructing his life narrative and through this finds some release, and Susan, who finds herself facing life transitions much earlier than expected and learns to transcend her circumstances and find a new way of living. And last, we meet Tom who, despite the loss of all he holds dear, manages also to transcend his circumstances and face death on his own terms. Helen's aim in this book is to use story-telling about real people living real lives to inspire others to consider this work as possible, necessary and meaningful. Who is this book for?The book will appeal to practising counsellor and psychotherapists, particularly those from humanistic traditions and specialising in bereavement and palliative care settings, and more widely to anyone - professionals and care workers alike - working with elderly people in a caring or therapeutic capacity, in the residential and nursing care sectors and the voluntary sector. It will also be of interest to trainee counsellors, general and mental health nurses, occupational therapists and GPs, and to trainers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e`Helen's approach to counselling older adults is humanising, compassionate, and relationally deep.
