BPS Professional Practice and Development Series

In partnership with Routledge, we are pleased to present BPS Professional Practice and Development, a series of inspiring books designed to support continuing professional development. 

Offering accessible, evidence-based guides to deepen understanding, develop expertise and improve techniques and strategies, books in this series address key topics and challenges faced by psychologists in their research and practice, and include case studies and real-life examples in relevant contexts.

Supporting Professional Development to Enhance Understanding and Expertise

Each book strikes a careful balance between research and practical strategies, as well as resources for implementation and opportunities for reflection.

Covering a broad range of subject areas for practitioners in a range of roles, titles may also be accompanied by digital resources to support professionals in employing new strategies and practices in their work.
