Beschreibungen
In this superbly researched, accessible text, Paul Bennett delivers a novel and much sought-after approach to clinical psychology: lifespan perspective. Addressing the issues that contribute to psychopathology throughout the lifespan, he explores interventions that can be applied in each phase, before addressing the aetiology and treatment of key problems within each age range. With a clear 3-part structure, the book explores the key factors that contribute to psychological disorders in each of three broad age groups; young people, adults, and older adults. It then covers a range of clinical approaches such as behavioural, CBT and humanistic models that are used in clinical practice. Clinical problems that are particularly relevant to each developmental stage, in particular how they present, their aetiology, and how they are treated from both psychological and pharmacological perspectives, are addressed in the final part of the book. Each chapter includes the following features: Chapter summaries - outline the chapter content to aid navigation through the bookLearning outcomes highlight the key learning pointsClinical examples bring clinical practice aliveCase histories include family or individual accounts of the therapy process to illustrate practiceSynthesising and summary links aid learning 'What do you think?' boxes - invite the reader to consider a key issue in the chapter Research studies introduce the latest research in the fieldClinical Psychology is a must have text for undergraduate students of clinical psychology, mental health nursing and those studying for their postgraduate and professional qualifications in Counselling and Clinical psychology. It will also be for mental health practitioners working in the NHS, including clinical psychologists and assistant psychologists.
