Review
"A compact and well-written book." - Nursing Times "...definitive! Caring colleagues should readit." - Perspectives: Policy and Practice in Higher Education "...a 'must read' for all in the field." - Counselling "...an interesting, thoughtful and knowledgeable book which contains something for all counsellors. I recommend it." - British Journal of Guidance & Counselling "This is a well-argued and richly detailed book. It should be of great value to academics and administrators in giving reliable information on what the resources, and the needs, of counselling services are, but also to counsellors themselves as an overall view of the complex and changing environment in which they work." - Higher Education Review "There is so much in the cases that I recognized in me and my friends." - A student "Now I understand much more clearly what student counsellors do and why they do it. Every tutor should have a copy." - A tutor "It is good to have all this information in one place. I also learned something new." - An experienced counsellor
Product Description
Student counselling is taking place within a rapidly changing context, the future of student counselling depends on practitioners' ability to learn from the past but also on their capacity to speak clearly and uncompromisingly about their work in the present. In this book Elsa Bell traces the history and development of counselling in further and higher education. She shows how, just as in a counselling session, the past is evident and powerful in the present. Illustrations from current work show the complexities of student counselling in practice and highlight the need for highly skilled practitioners who are capable of dealing with a wide range of people and problems. The book argues that central to student counselling is the need for a sophisticated understanding of organizations and their impact on individuals and on counselling practice.
