Summary:

Written with clinicians in mind who are caring for people with long-term or chronic conditions, the aim of this book is to provide an informative and useful resource to help clinicians understand how people deal with, and adjust to, life with a long-term condition. The book will not equip the reader with an in-depth knowledge of psychological theory, but instead provides background knowledge and theory of cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and how it can help to give people a positive approach to living with their condition.
