Working with Risk in Counselling and Psychotherapy
Risk is an ever-present issue for counsellors and psychotherapists and, in an increasingly litigious culture, the need for trainees to develop a sound understanding of how the right tools and the right knowledge can support their practice has never been greater. Filled with case studies, ethical dilemmas, reflective questions, discussion questions and suggestions for further reading, this book offers counsellors and psychotherapists guidance on how they can work with risk proactively and positively and provides practical hints and tips, and links to policy and research to inform good ethical practice along the way.

Praise for this book
When confronted by risk it is common for us to lose the ability to think. This book offers a broad, realistic and grounded approach to thinking about risk. Risk is looked at from the vantage point of what is risky for the client and also for the therapist. The use of client vignettes and reflective exercises enable the reader to engage directly with their attitudes, feelings and also their responsibilities towards clients exhibiting risky behaviour. The book also embraces issues related to self- harm and risk in the context of mental health. Andrew Reeves has written a compact book that is useful to therapeutic practitioners but also to those teaching others about the nuts and bolts of addressing risk in the counselling room and other helping settings.
