Title | Revisit the forgotten art of letter writing |
Authors | Green, A. and Lambert, N. |
Abstract | Using letter writing to augment the therapeutic relationship is familiar to counsellors and psychotherapists, but many mental health nurses have been reluctant to employ this practice. Therapeutic letter writing is not usually included in the mainstream nursing curriculum or as part of routine care, and nurses can feel ill-equipped to undertake it. |
