Reviews

'This book is useful and interesting... Prescribers will be given an opportunity to view the counselling perspective, and counsellors will enhance their knowledge and skills in working with people taking prescribed medicine' - Drug and Alcohol Review 'Hammersley explores the uses and limitations of drug therapy for patients suffering from depression, anxiety and related disorders... Although many therapists welcome psychopharmacology for their clients, there are still many who feel that drug treatment is a stop-gap measure at best. This book provides an examination of the issue and offers some good advice about helping clients withdraw from drugs and cope with their realities drug-free' - Contemporary Psychology
