From the Back Cover

The new edition of A Practical Approach to Counselling remains the ideal text for students on introductory, foundation and certificate level courses.
The book deals with all aspects of counselling, including psychodynamic, person-centred, group, Gestalt, transactional, rational-emotive and behavioural. There is also a new section examining the latest psychodynamic approaches. Every chapter contains a detailed case study to ensure easy understanding of critical issues. Vitally, the author also demystifies the concept of 'eclecticism' - the term used to describe the process of selecting methods from a variety of therapeutic systems, while taking into consideration the fact that each client is a unique person with individual needs.

4.0 out of 5 stars An invaluable addition for all counselling students, 6 Sep 2000
By A Customer
I first came across this book some years ago while undertaking my counselling training. It's main benefit is it's straightforward approach at introducing core elements of most topics, models and theories all students will find useful when needing to dip into a given subject.

From TA to Gestalt and plenty of other information contained within. In all, I couldn't recommend this book enough!
