The book offers an innovative look at emerging and well-established counseling theories. Organizing theories into four broad themes (background, emotions, thoughts and actions), the authors underscore key similarities and differences in each approach. Moving beyond a traditional theories book, the chapters now include skill development sections that connect counseling theories with clinical practice. In addition, the discussions of relevant research, documenting the validity of each approach, have been expanded. Updated information is also provided on all treatment approaches presented in the text, with considerably expanded information on many. Fully revised, this edition brings a stronger multicultural focus, includes over 400 new research references and offers new activities to sharpen clinical understanding.
