This book is ideal for healthcare professionals seeking to expand their skills in psychological care for patients with chronic and life-limiting illnesses, particularly those aiming to integrate CBT into everyday clinical settings.

Description

There is a growing awareness of the need to address the psychological distress associated with physical ill health; however, current resources are limited and difficult to access. The best way to tackle the issue is by enhancing the skills of those professionals who have routine contact with them.

CBT provides the evidence-based skills that most readily meet these requirements in a time and cost efficient manner. Based on materials prepared for a Cancer Network sponsored training programme and modified to address the needs of a larger client population of people experiencing psychological distress due to physical ill-health, this innovative workbook offers a basic introduction and guide to enable healthcare professionals to build an understanding of the relevance and application of CBT methods in everyday clinical practice.

This is effectively captured in CBT for Chronic Illness and Palliative Care by Nigel Sage, Michelle Sowden, Elizabeth Chorlton, and Andrea Edeleanu, which serves as a valuable resource for healthcare professionals.
