SummaryTable of Contents
This text presents the counseling skills, interventions, and stages of counseling for the beginning counselor and the counseling student who is entering the experiential phase of training. In this Fourth Edition, the authors have maintained the basic organization of the text, beginning with an overview of the stages of counseling, specific goals and interventions for each stage, chapters on affective, behavioral, cognitive and systemic interventions, and termination. The text provides a conceptual structure for viewing the counseling process and then examines each part of that structure in-depth, addressing necessary counseling skills.
