Relationship Skills in Social Work
Relationship Skills in Social Work
Professor David Howe, School of Social work and Psychology, University of East Anglia
Human relationships lie at the very heart of social work practice, and an understanding of their importance is a crucial aspect of training. This book considers the place of relationships in current practice and explores the ways in which social workers can use relationship skills to achieve the best possible outcomes for their clients.
The book also offers a unique discussion of the social worker's relationship with him or herself, arguing that self-awareness is as essential to good practice as an emotional understanding of the other. In doing so, the book promotes a new model for relationship-based social work, which emphasises the importance of both the inter- and intrapersonal.
Opening with an introduction to the theoretical bases of the relationship-based model, the book then focuses on their direct application to social work practice. Key topics include:
-Self-awareness and using oneself
-Knowing the other person
-Sustaining oneself
-The ethics of relationship-based social work
-Internalising knowledge, skills and values
