This is an essential guide for therapists at the beginning of their career. It goes beyond academic theory to provide readers with confidence and competence around core aspects of therapeutic processes, contend with professional and ethical issues as well as assist in establishing their identity and standing as a therapist.

Informed by years of clinical work and supervision, Bianca Denny presents practical answers to burning questions in an authoritative and accessible manner. The book offers plain language explanations of common dilemmas that often flummox trainee and early career therapists, such as keeping time in session, coping with ‘imposter syndrome’, decisions around managing confidentiality and working with patients who get under your skin. These are accompanied by practical tips and ready-to-implement skills, encouraging readers to consider the application of these skills to the patients and presentations in their current practice. Further supported by diagrams, tables and call-out boxes, the book is easy to navigate and revisit throughout the first weeks, months and years of a career in psychotherapy.

Practical and accessible, this book is ideal for trainee and early-career psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors, social workers, and other helping professionals.

Recenzijas

"Denny distills the challenges faced by early-career therapists and provides actionable strategies, making this guide an invaluable resource for both novice practitioners and seasoned professionals seeking to refine their skills. Rather than adhering to a single theoretical framework, the book synthesises insights from influential psychotherapists and foundational theories, offering a balanced, compassionate, and practical approach... This text is poised to become essential reading for years to come."

Fiona Bailey, DPsych, Psychologist, supervisor and Director, Australia

"Denny provides practical information on the how-to of psychotherapy but more importantly she delves into how to be a psychotherapist. Early-career therapists do have to learn practical skills to treat clients, but they also must learn to face themselves which is not something you can learn in a textbook. Denny brings the human into the therapy room, and this makes it an indispensable manual for all early-career therapists."

Lauren Keegan, Perinatal Psychologist & Author of All the Bees in the Hollows, Australia
