Description:
Develop your own counseling style using Corey's bestselling THEORY AND PRACTICE OF COUNSELING AND PSYCHOTHERAPY. You will see the major theories of counseling (psychoanalytic, Adlerian, existential, person-centered, Gestalt, reality, behavior, cognitive-behavior, family systems, feminist and, and postmodern approaches) as they are used in practice through a case study focused on one client, "Stan." The case of "Stan" appears in each chapter so you can see how the theory presented in that chapter informs therapeutic decision-making. "At a Glance" charts pinpoint the major differences between theories in areas such as multicultural focus, basic philosophies, and limitations.

Clear and concise - This text is easy to read. Different sections are devoted to different types of psychotherapy and chapters are broken down to individual styles within those types. Additional sections that "compare and contrast" the different types of therapy help to clarify the ways the therapies are similar and different.

Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy - It's just a textbook I'm assigned to read, but it's pretty interesting & easy to understand.

Pleased with product - The item arrived earlier than expected. The quality was great and the price was cheaper than I would have paid in a bookstore.

assessment - I thought that the book would provide more detailed information
regarding the major concepts of the various theories. I was also disappointed
that it did not offer specific information about the most popular interventions.
It was more of an introduction to various theories. It did not
offer what I needed which was a thorough review of each theory. However, it is
a good introductory book at the Undergraduate level.
