    Why don't you give exact delivery time?

    Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

    Long description:

    This textbook outlines the key areas of mental health practice for those in the early stages of their training, who may not necessarily come from psychology backgrounds.

    • Accompanies the lecturer's book ?Teaching Mental Health' 
    • Focuses on the 'Ten Essential Shared Capabilities' that have been developed by the Sainsbury Centre for Mental Health
    • In partnership with the BABCP, Lord Layard is recommending that more mental health graduates be trained in order to meet demand for mental health services in the UK


    This key textbook introduces the diverse and vibrant field of mental health practice to students, learners and workers, who are new to the subject.

    Written in a lively and engaging style, Learning About Mental Health Practice covers all the essentials of professional practice that students need to master in order to be successful in both their qualification course and their future career.

    Illustrated and augmented throughout with case studies, practical examples and interactive exercises, Learning About Mental Health Practice covers all 10 Essential Shared Capabilities - recommended by the Department of Health to be core in the curricula of all pre and post qualification training for professional and non-professionally affiliated staff as well as being embedded in induction and continuing professional/practitioner development. Other topics covered include:

    • Socially inclusive practice
    • Equality and rights
    • Challenges to the concept of ?mental illness'
    • The Trauma model of psychosis
    • Drugs, alcohol and mental health
    • Service user involvement
    • Working with families and carers
    • Multi-disciplinary team working
    • Approaches for practice - therapeutic relationships, psychological, psychosocial, creative, spiritual and holistic approaches
    • Promoting recovery

    Invaluable as a student resource, readers will continue to refer to this book throughout their working lives.



    ?This is a good introduction to mental health practice for students and first time employees in the field.? (Doody?s, 2009)

    "This is not a handbook for medical treatment but is intended to encourage students of mental health to consider broader perspectives than are offered by the medical model, including patients? psychological, social and spiritual needs." (Journal of Analytical Psychology, February 2009)
