Product Description

Product Description
The application of systemic ideas and principles in working with people with intellectual disabilities, their families and their service systems, has grown over the last decade in the UK. This book, for the first time, brings together the writings of a group of practitioners who have been using this approach in their clinical practice. It is hoped it will inspire others to try out different ways of working with people with intellectual disabilities and their wider systems, so that they can have the choice of a wide range of therapeutic approaches. It is also hoped that systemic practitioners who are unfamiliar with this client group might give consideration to extend their practice to also work with people with intellectual disabilities.

About the Author
Sandra Baum is a Consultant Clinical Psychologist with Newham Primary Care NHS Trust. She has a post-graduate certificate in systems approaches to families and organisations from the Tavistock Centre. Her clinical work and research interests focus on using systemic approaches with families and staff teams, and on improving services for parents with intellectual disabilities. Henrik Lynggaard is a Chartered Clinical Psychologist with Camden and Islington Mental Health NHS Trust in London and is currently completing his systemic psychotherapy training at KCC. He was born and brought up in Denmark but has trained and worked mainly in the UK, where he has developed a strong interest in adapting systemic and narrative approaches in his conversations with people with intellectual disabilities.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent introduction to systemic ways of working with people with learning disabilities, 1 Feb 2009
By L. Baxter (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book provides an excellent introduction to the area and I have found it invaluable in my work so far with this client group. The chapters cover a range of topics, and include insightful case examples from the practitioners' own work. There is a good balance between theory and practice, and key ideas and concepts are explained clearly. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who would like to know more about working systemically with people who have learning disabilities.

Very good book. I recommend it. Having worked in the same trust with Sandra Baum and having seen her commitment and her skills, I bought it to know more about this psychological approach with this client group - I was not disappointed.
