Communicating effectively when addressing psychiatric and psychological problems in everyday practice can be difficult. Communication Skills in Mental Health Care provides a clear and concise guide on how to run consultations, using the Calgary-Cambridge Model.

The model is applied to an extensive variety of mental health conditions, ranging from taking a good psychiatric history to specialist scenarios such as working with families and young people or breaking bad news in mental health. There are also practical and comprehensive chapters on anxiety, depression, psychosis, risk to self, mental capacity, dealing with emotions, and mental health consultations in primary care.
