Self-Care for Clinicians in Training: A Guide to Psychological Wellness for Graduate Students in Psychology de Leigh A. Carter

Self-Care for Clinicians in Training: A Guide to Psychological Wellness for Graduate Students in Psychology

Autor Leigh A. Carter, Jeffrey E. Barnett
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 aug 2014
Self-care for Clinicians in Training: A Guide to Psychological Wellness for Graduate Students in Psychology assists readers in recognizing the challenges and stressors common to being a graduate student and instructs them in maintaining a career-long lifestyle of self-care. Successfully navigating graduate school requires much more than completing coursework and clinical experiences; graduate students in psychology make countless sacrifices and dedicate what may feel like a never-ending amount of time and energy in the pursuit of professional training. As such, many students put their own needs and well-being on hold or overlook them entirely. This can negatively impact coursework, clinical work, as well as one's relationships and health. This book teaches how to recognize risk factors that contribute to problems with psychological and emotional functioning and highlights preventative and reparative strategies that foster a lifestyle of self-care. The authors also encourage readers to consider self-care and psychological wellness beyond themselves, expanding to monitoring the well-being of peers and establishing cultures of self-care within their training programs. This book will be an essential resource to students in psychology graduate programs as well as those across the mental health professions

Recenzii

Perhaps the most exciting book to date in the self-care field! So many of us can only wish we'd had such a guide as students. What a significant, state-of-the-art contribution to the field! The reality is that self-care is an ongoing lifespan practice, for each of us, as we evolve, personally and professionally. To have this information from which to build on across the course of one's life-what a priceless gift!
The authors take a compassionate look at the stresses associated with graduate study in psychology and argue convincingly for the importance of effective self-care. I strongly encourage current and perspective graduate students (and the faculty members who mentor them) to purchase and use this book.
Beginning graduate school and entering a profession can be surprisingly stressful, especially for those who have been so successful in the past. Carter and Barnett place this very intimate journey in perspective, highlighting the importance of mentors, self-help activities, and a healthy lifestyle. This book meets a very important need for graduate students in the 'helping professions' and should be required reading in every graduate program.
Self-Care for Clinicians in Training is a wonderful book that fills a major need. As the authors note, far too few training programs attend to self-care issues as part of clinical training, even as self-care is now identified as an ethical imperative for all psychotherapists. This workbook can be the trainee's companion across the entire graduate program and into the internship. It offers many self-assessment worksheets and a wealth of suggested strategies across many life domains. Well done!
