Psychological and psychiatric disorders are the third most common diagnosis in consultations in primary care, following respiratory and cardiovascular disorders. Many general practitioners now employ counsellors to help them with the psychological and emotional problems of their patients. This book explores the counsellor's role in general practice and investigates the issues involved. The contributors, GPs, counsellors and researchers, have wide experience of counselling attachments and have been involved in developing and promoting GP counselling on a nation-wide scale. They discuss the extent of psychiatric and psychological disorders in primary care, and explain in detail what counselling is, and its ethics. They describe how to set up a counselling service in general practice and how to evaluate it, with examples of questionnaires. There are two detailed accounts of counselling attachments and a chapter on practical and training issues, which includes guidance on employing a counsellor and the issues to consider when setting up an attachment. Intended as a guide for GPs, counsellors and practice nurses and for Family Health Service Authority managers and planners, it will be of enormous help in enabling the primary care team to make the best use of its resources.
