Description
Speech-language pathologists and audiologists receive little formal training in dealing with the emotional issues that will confront clients who have communication disorders. The families of those clients also need support in addressing emotions concomitant with communication disorders. Often, the humanistic elements of treatment are superficially addressed, if at all. How therapists deal with these issues, however, has an enormous impact on the effectiveness of their clinical efforts. Luterman addresses this lack of attention to emotions. In addition to the expertise of trained, experienced counselors, the new edition of this popular book also discusses some of today's hot topics. These topics include how to work with the chronically ill and their families and the consequences of the advent of universal screening of newborns. Both issues are having an increasing impact on the dynamics of the therapist-client relationship and require greater sensitivity to the particular needs of the clients and their families.
