Through the development of increasingly
complex human social groups, social and economic changes and challenges, industrialisation,
technological advancement, global mobility and electronic communication, a
significant gap of care has emerged. The erosion of the intimate social support
systems that originally nurtured, protected and developed the human psyche, has
necessitated the emergence of various talk therapies as alternative forms of
psychosocial and emotional support. Talk therapy toolkit is a practical
and accessible text aimed at introducing emergent practitioners to the theory,
techniques and practice of counselling and psychotherapy.
Talk therapy toolkit may be used to apply counselling and
psychotherapy tools to promote the development of people in various contexts,
ranging from healthcare and coaching to the workplace and beyond. Features
include illustrative composite case studies and examples from the South African
context, learning objectives and practical suggestions on the application of
core principles and practices. Chapters on spirituality and neuroscience in
psychotherapy will appeal to advanced practitioners and offer beginners a
comprehensive overview.
