Coping With…: Published in partnership with the Association of Clinical Psychologists UK (ACP-UK)
About the Book Series
Published in partnership with the Association of Clinical Psychologists UK (ACP-UK), the Coping With… series is a set of books written by clinical psychologists about their lived experience of a health condition or life challenge, while simultaneously drawing insights from their professional expertise.
Each of the books provides the author’s account of the psychological impact of their particular challenge and how it impacted on their own emotional wellbeing. They then explain which psychological coping skills they used to support their wellbeing and talk the reader through how they might be able to apply these to their own situation. The authors of each volume also provide an explanation of the psychological theories underpinning these coping strategies and the evidence base from which they are drawn.
This series will be of interest to individuals (and their loved ones) who share lived experience of the health condition or challenge explored in each volume. It may also be of interest to healthcare or mental health practitioners who are seeking a better understanding of the experiences of these specific client groups.
