This book describes the practice of clinical psychology with special
emphasis on providing trainee therapists with the skills and
strategies to achieve the core competencies required for a
science-informed clinical practice. It will support the reader in
making the transition from the lecture theatre to the consulting room.
The approach incorporates a contemporary perspective on the multiple
roles of clinical psychologists within a competitive health care
market, where professional psychologists not only need to be
accountable for their outcomes and efficient in achieving them, but
also need to be conscious of the social and political context in which
psychology is practised. Chapters are organised around the acquisition
of key competencies and linked within an evidence-based,
science-informed framework. Case studies, handouts, graphics and
worksheets are employed to encourage the implementation of the skills
described. This book should be read by all those enrolled in, or
contemplating, postgraduate studies in clinical psychology.
