"Working on the Frontline of Mental Health is an account of the day-to-day work in psychological therapies, highlighting the complexities patients present but also their remarkable and moving stories of recovery after many years of adversity.

Each chapter provides a detailed description of the latest cognitive behavioural therapy approaches used to help clients overcome psychological challenges which is paired with compelling case studies that demonstrate their application. The book also outlines the challenges of continuing to deliver therapy during the Covid pandemic, as well as the demands placed upon the profession and the psychological challenges experienced by therapists. This book will be of interest to a variety of mental health professionals, especially those trained in CBT, along with those who have personal experience with mental health problems"-- |
