New approaches from cognitive therapy have made significant advances toward helping clients with psychosomatic problems. A practical and comprehensive guide, Counseling for Psychosomatic Problems presents a cognitive way of working with clients who present for counseling with physical symptoms, but where psychological issues or problems are causing or maintaining those symptoms. While taking the reader through the different stages of the counseling process, author Diana Sanders examines common somatic problems, such as atypical chest pain, and covers the factors that maintain the problems. She not only discusses the difficulties of clearly defining whether an illness is physical or psychological but also probes the inherent challenges of working with clients who may not see the relevance of counseling to their somatic problems. This guide also addresses psychological categories and terminology as well as techniques for developing the therapeutic process. This volume will be particularly informative to professionals, researchers, and researchers in counseling and social work.
