Book Description

9 April 2000 0534348238 978-0534348236 6th Revised edition
This revised text aims to help students develop a personalized style of counselling. ten contemporary theories are presented and these are psychoanalytic, Adlerian, existential, person-centred, Gestalt, reality, behaviour, cognitive-behaviour, family systems, and feminist. The book demonstrates how each theory can be applied to a single hypothetical case (Stan), covers the major concepts of counselling theories, shows students how to apply those theories in practice, and helps them learn to integrate the theories into an individualized counselling style. Incorporating the thinking, feeling, and behaving dimensions of human experience, the author offers an accessible text that encourages students to compare and contrast the therapeutic models. This book is the centre of a suite of products that includes a revised student manual, a revised casebook, a new companion text, and a student video and workbook.

Product Description

Review

"In general, I believe that the Corey text is one of the best available for students at the level at which I teach (psychology majors at the advanced level)."


"a]well-written, up-to-date, highly readable and accessible, an excellent introduction to counseling theories, and a text that emphasizes growth and wholeness rather than pathology. In describing this book, I would also emphasize the attention to diversity that flows throughout the book. I would highlight both the multicultural sections and the feminist therapy approach as evidence of Coreyas commitment to an inclusive approach." --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Format:Hardcover
I found this book very usefull.As a counselling student,it helped me to formulate questions and some probable answers as I near the end of my training and am struggling with the issue of Integrating theories. Would have liked Object Relations theories to have been given more space, instead of a few paragraphs lumped in with Analysis, but am aware that this book is revised each addition, some things removed some added. The conciseness of the text inevitebly requires some sacrifice. On the whole I found it a very fair minded book, an honest and successfull attempt to clarify the major therapies, in a very accessable way.

A fantastic book for Trainee Counsellors/Therapists or anyone doing a Degree in Counselling Skills and Theraputic studies.

Easy to understand and very informative. Covers a very wide spectrum of Theories and Theorists.

Excellent Book, well worth reading.
