{"product_id":"9781529763225","title":"Practicing Therapy as Social Construction by Sheila McNamee","description":"This book is a comprehensive introduction to social constructionist ideas and their application within the psychological therapies.     Whether you are a trainee or qualified therapist, this book will support you to think about therapy as a socially constructed and relational process, and to develop as a more culturally, socially and politically aware practitioner. It advocates for `therapist activists' who understand the interplay between the micro and the macro in therapeutic contexts and debunks the idea of the `isolated client' to examine how broader societal conditions create problems for the individual. Chapters are designed to engage, offering a variety of features to support learning, including:     - Introductory and concluding chapter summaries  - Textboxes summarising content \u0026amp; spotlighting key information  - Case studies and vignettes throughout   - Reflective questions \u0026amp; thought-provoking exercises  - Recommended Further Reading.     This book has wide applicability, with author affiliations across both North and South America - the University of New Hampshire in the US and the Federal University of Uberlandia in Brazil.\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56303909273973,"sku":"9781529763225","price":30.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781529763225.jpg?v=1762795121","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781529763225","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
