Our Trainers Books


Living Beyond Your Pain: Using Acceptance & Commitment Therapy to Ease Chronic Pain
Authors: Tobias Lundgren, Joanne Dahl
Price: £16.99
Publisher: New Harbinger Publications; 1 Workbook edition (May 3, 2006)
Description: This book is based on the ACT model, which suggests that rather than trying to control your thoughts or the uncontrollable (your chronic pain), it’s preferable to live aligned to your values, and bring pain along for the ride. By neither focusing on, nor ignoring pain and judgements about your pain, it’s possible to take committed action and do valued activities instead of avoiding activities because of your pain.

The Art and Science of Valuing in Psychotherapy: Helping Clients Discover, Explore, and Commit to Valued Action Using Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
Authors: Joanne Dahl, Jennifer Plumb, Ian Stewart, Tobias Lundgren
Publisher: New Harbinger Pubns; 1 edition (July 1, 2009)
Price: £40.80
Description: Valuing is a key component of the acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) six-process model. During this process, therapists help clients identify and decide on their values and commit to acting according to those values. The Art and Science of Valuing in Psychotherapy is the therapists' guide to conducting this delicate and important work without imposing their own beliefs on the client, defining values in overly narrow or overly nebulous ways, or confusing values with judgments, likes and dislikes, morals, or cultural norms. Readers also receive guidance for teaching their clients to apply these values to their lives in practical and concrete ways to increase clients' self-esteem and life satisfaction.

The Counsellor's Handbook Third Edition
Authors: Rowan Bayne, Ian Horton, Patrizia Collard, Gordon Jinks
Publisher: Nelson Thornes (Mar 2008)

Description: This book has been updated with new entries to reflect the changes within the counselling profession over the last few years. Maintaining the popular alphabetical style of the previous editions, the authors have also kept the accessible writing style, making this handbook a must-have for every practicing counsellor! The alphabetical entries follow the style of the previous two editions. The book examines issues concerning generic, professional, and more specific clinical practice. New entries include criticisms of counselling, dependence/addiction, dreams, the death of a counsellor, refugee counselling, and self-injury.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy: An Experiential Approach to Behavior Change
Authors: Steven C. Hayes PhD , Kirk D. Strosahl & Kelly G. Wilson
Publisher: Guilford Press; 1 edition (8 Jan 2004)
Price: £16.02
Description: Functional contextualism is the world view that underlies ACT. Theoretically ACT is based on RFT, which offers an account of how language creates pain and useless methods of dealing with it, and which suggests alternative contextual approaches to these domains. ACT uses metaphors, experiential exercises, and logical paradox to get around the literal content of language and to produce more contact with the ongoing flow of experience in the moment.
