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.

keep this book for years to come - I love this book! I used the 2nd edition, save yourself some money and use that edition for your theories class!! it is the best book. I had used it in undergrad, it was used in another grad school, and I loved it so much i rebought it for my own graduate theories class to supplement the required text. it presents the theories in such an understandable way! never read a better written theories book. the appendix is also tremendously helpful in summarazing and comparing the theories, giving examples of them in use.
I will keep this book for a long time!
