私たちは時に大きな困難や変化に直面し苦悩します。その苦悩には社会的・文化的・経済的要因が関与し、個々人の思考の癖やパターン、理解の仕方が影響するものと捉え、専門知識と技術を用いて心理学的援助を行うのが臨床心理です。本書では臨床心理学の幅広い実践領域、問題、アプローチ、モデルを見渡すほか、この分野が抱える課題や論争、国際的な差異にまで言及します。本質的には異なるが重なる部分も少なくない精神医学とは競い合うべきなのか、協調すべきなのかといった問いにも取り組みます。
 

  • Offers a wide ranging coverage of the discipline of clinical psychology today, considering the difficulties tackled by clinical psychologists and the approaches and models they use
  • Includes a wide array of clinical examples and illustrations of case histories
  • Discusses the challenges and controversies facing the profession today, including the key question of whether it should compete or collaborate with psychiatry

 
Clinical psychology makes a significant contribution to mental health care across the world. The essence of the discipline is the creative application of the knowledge base of psychology to the unique, personal experiences of individuals who are facing difficulties or changes in their lives. Rather than addressing such experiences as primarily a medical, political or legal problem, clinical psychologists approach personal distress as an unhappy outcome of certain ways of thinking, behaving and relating, often occurring within difficult social, cultural or economic circumstances. Clinical psychologists work with people to try and help them change what is distressing or concerning them, based on a belief in the value of the individual to determine what happens to them and on the importance of using approaches which have been demonstrated through research to be effective. 

In this Very Short Introduction Susan Llewellyn and Katie Aafjes-van Doorn provide insights into the world of clinical psychologists and their clients or patients, and cover the range of domains of practice, the difficulties tackled, and the approaches and models used. They consider the challenges and controversies facing the profession today, and also how it varies across the globe. Finally, they discuss the key questions surrounding clinical psychology, such as whether it should compete or collaborate with psychiatry, how far it is yet another instrument of social control, what new technology can offer in the future, and whether clinical psychology can ever really be considered a science.

Using this book will remind you that you are not alone." - Paul Watson, Nursing Times
