INTEGRATIVE STRESS COUNSELLING
Pat Milner & Stephen Palmer £16-99 + £1-60 p&p each (Cassell)

As we move into the third millennium we are beginning to recognise that modern life is presenting more and more people with situations which repeatedly stretch their ability to cope. As the authors illustrate, these are exactly the conditions which can lead to an imbalance between the demands of the particular situation and our current ability to cope. This new integrative problem-focused approach to the dilemma helps the client increase their ability to cope with, or develop ways of reducing, the demands of the situation. The authors have success-fully integrated the rational optimism of the cognitive behaviourists with the gentler, more expressive style of the humanistic approach. The result is a refreshing book which supports common-sense attitudes which is a useful and practical book for students and practitioners of counselling, counselling psychology and psychotherapy, academics and the general reader.
