"Counselling for Depression is a guide to depression and the essential interpersonal skills and techniques used in counselling the depressed person." "Paul Gilbert explores many of the features and complexities of depressed states, including general negativity, the sense of failure, abandonment, powerlessness, anger, shame and guilt. He discusses the key role of the therapeutic relationship, conceptualization and formulation and a wide variety of interventions for different types of difficulty. Carefully chosen illustrations and case examples are used to outline the steps appropriate to different stages in the counselling process and which help to build the client's capacity for change and recovery." "This fully revised and updated second edition features an additional chapter on interventions with a specific focus on developing inner warmth. Counselling for Depression will continue to be of significant benefit to all those training, or training others, in their psychotherapeutic work with depressed clients."--Jacket.
