Description
This work describes the personal and social burden created by chronic health conditions, emphasizing the need for specialized medical crisis counselling to support people's adjustment to them. The core of the text is a detailed presentation of Irene Pollin's model, illustrated with numerous cases. Individual, family and group counselling techniques focus on the eight expectable issues surrounding chronic illness: control, self-image, dependency, stigma, abandonment, anger, isolation and death.
