Recenzii
Peter Jenkins takes the reader step by step through both the legal requirements and the requirements of the BACP Ethical Framework so that the territory of confidentiality, record-keeping and data protection, and contracting becomes accessible.
Peter Jenkins is a standard-bearer and an exemplary role model for counselling education. Peter leaves no stone unturned, writing in detailed and accessible prose filled with care and compassion. This is an indispensable guide to becoming and being a counsellor.
This book provides an in depth account of numerous subjects pertaining to counselling and psychotherapy, from statutory registration through to ethical and legal considerations. The student in training, the new practitioner the clinical supervisor and the experienced therapist all have much to gain from this informative book which courageously leaves few difficult subjects uncovered.
Engagingly written, Peter Jenkins’ ‘Professional Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy’ is an essential go-to guide for both the emerging and competent practitioner. A therapist can feel confident that grey and tricky ethical areas are addressed pragmatically and openly. Ideal for our Counselling and Psychotherapy programme.
Peter Jenkins’ book provides an invaluable guide to the realities of counselling practice in organizations and supports individual practice with a relevant, in-depth exploration of ethical issues faced by counsellors.
An excellent and comprehensive text which emphasises the importance of ethics and legal issues in Professional Counselling Practice. I will be adding this title to the recommended reading list for the Trainee Counsellors on the Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Practice at Stockport College.
Peter Jenkins new book is a very impressive contribution and a really useful resource. It is so thorough and comprehensively wide ranging from organisational structure and culture, data protection, equality and diversity to personal development and self care. It's good to see the usefulness of group work given mention too.
This will be a valuable reference book not only for trainee counsellors but experienced practitioners, supervisors and trainers too. I'm sure there will be lots of demand for it.
This book is sure to become an established counselling classic, both for those new to the profession and for the more established practitioner.
Jenkins gives an excellent overview of CORE forms, and outcome measures generally.
This book provides a solid overview of the legal, ethical and organisational frameworks within which we work as a profession.
This is a book for our time, worthy in its aim to support counsellors and therapists in developing their risk assessments skills, decision-making processes, and in dealing with the legal minefield in our litigious and risk-averse society.
I believe this book fills an important gap, which goes beyond counsellor training programmes. There is a good mix of theory and practice, with further reading, resources and areas for clinical supervisors to consider. I think it may become a well-thumbed tome on many counsellors' bookshelves.
I believe it would be of equal relevance to a trainer, supervisor or manager, both on a personal level in their own practice, as well as enhancing understanding from their role perspective of what it might be like for a student or supervisee.

Notă biografică
Peter Jenkins is a counsellor, trainer, supervisor and researcher. He has worked as a student and staff counsellor in college and university settings for the past thirty years. During this time, he has developed a particular interest in exploring ethical, professional and legal issues in counselling practice. He has run over two hundred workshops on these topics, aimed at addressing the current concerns of practitioners. He has been a member of both the BACP Professional Conduct Committee and the UKCP Ethics Committee and has published around one hundred articles on law and ethics in the professional counselling press. His publications include Therapy with Children, as co-author with Dr Debbie Daniels (Second edition, Sage, 2010), Counselling, Psychotherapy and the Law (Second edition, Sage 2007), online modules for Counselling Mind-Ed and other training material, such as Counselling Confidentiality and the Law (2013, Counselling DVDs).
Peter has produced a wide range of free resources, which can be downloaded to supplement the material outlined in his recent book, Professional Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy: Ethics and the Law. These resources include a video presentation on key issues in recording therapeutic work with clients and online self-study programmes on legal issues in working with children and young people for MindEd. While his book closely follows the BACP Ethical Framework in terms of discussing the competencies required of counsellors and psychotherapists, he has also developed a critical analysis of the Ethical Framework, and of some of the legal resources designed to underpin it. In addition, the key area of data protection is undergoing change, with the implementation of the General Data Protection Regulation in May 2018. The impact of the GDPR is explored in a further piece, looking at its background and some of the main implications for counsellors.
