Excellent clinical tool! - This book is an easy, clear, concise, interactive and informative clinical tool that prepares beginning counselors for the field. Easy to understand and the reading is not boring at all. I really enjoyed reading and learning from this book. It really opens up your awareness to things that you experience from a personal perspective and from the experiences of others. Good job Sommers-Flanagan.

Invaluable text book for counseling students - It is rare to find a text book that is not a chore to read, but this is one of them! The authors write in a very engaging manner, and the frequent bursts of humor make reading it a real pleasure. It takes readers through all the steps of interviewing, at a perfect pace, so that readers are not overwhelmed with information, but are able to absorb it, and develop their skills gradually. It also discusses in depth how to work with particular populations, including young clients, culturally diverse clients, and couples. The skills and techniques are discussed in a way that is is easy for readers to grasp and apply to their work. I would highly recommend this book for all students in the helping professions field. It is the most useful book I read during graduate school and I will always refer back to it throughout my career.
