Summary:

Practitioners from a variety of professions in health and social care, including clinical psychology, consultancy and nursing share their reflective stories exploring the restorative qualities of compassion for hope and resilience in therapeutic work. From stress-resilience to the nature of self-care to supervision in practice, these stories offer guidance and ideas for practitioners to prioritise their wellbeing and develop a deep compassionate engagement with clients for greater therapeutic outcomes for all. The scene is initially set with the editor's accessible discussion of relevant research in this area and concludes with helpful guideposts for practitioners to include in their own work.
