This workbook contains a series of cases, each of which provides a unique context and client for the consideration of entry-to-practice psychotherapists and counselling therapists. The reader is invited to consider the broad questions that follow each study in the context of the their particular College’s entry-to-practice competency profile and code of ethics. It is estimated that each case study will take approximately 60 minutes to complete.

The key highlights the contexts in each case and is not intended to be exhaustive.

The workbook does NOT use simulation-style and is NOT intended as an examination guide.
