For multiple reasons, I think this is an important book. It is both a labour of love and a labour of political necessity: The authors share a deep love for person-centred-experiential psychotherapy, grounded in decades-long experience as counsellors, trainers and scholars. They also recognize the importance of dialog and engagement with medicalized mental health care in the UK and elsewhere, arising out of the challenges of the recent past and speaking to the present moment across the current array of humanistic-experiential psychotherapies.
Throughout their updated third edition, Murphy and Pearce help Counselling for Depression (PCECfD) practitioners navigate the complex tensions between person-centred values and their manualised, evidence-based approach to treating depression in medical settings. With a strong emphasis on practice, this book will be an essential read for both trainees and qualified PCECfD counsellors who want to develop and enhance the competences required for offering PCECfD in the NHS and beyond.
