| Annotation | The editor of this issue of PSIGE Newsletter introduces the term "formulation" as being a 'plausible story' devised between therapist and client. Formulation is 'a tool used by clinicians to relate theory to practice.' Formulation is model-driven and therefore evidence-based; secondly, formulation is a narrative. This, according to the editor, makes it both accessible and open to question from other perspectives. This issue of PSIGE Newsletter looks at how formulation is used by psychologists, what a specific model looks like, and the training involved to use formulation. It also examines how psychologists can influence other services to adopt a formulation-based approach; what a shared formulation process should look like; and how can formulation be used to understand the service itself. Another focus is the importance attributed to reflective, non-managerial, clinical supervision as gleaned from trainees by doctoral tutors in older adult placements. (KJ/RH). |
