Zusammenfassung:
While the effectiveness of direct social work practice always requires one's competence in providing a variety of intervention modalities, outcomes are also dependent on the social worker's ability to develop & maintain constructive relationships with clients. This book describes in depth the many ways that such relationships can be developed with clients who display a wide range of presenting problems in many types of social service agencies. Each chapter focuses on a particular challenge that social workers may encounter in that process, including the benefits & limitations of theory selection, boundaries, the use of self, the working alliance, relationship ruptures, special issues presented by children & adolescents, terminations & transfers, clients about whom a social worker experiences highly positive or negative feelings, the uses of touch & humor, working with psychotic clients, & the uses of technology.
