xv, 296 pages ; 24 cm. Practical with a wealth of examples, this text shows readers to how to be effective counselors in each aspect of the counseling process. The Professional Counselor is organized, first and foremost, around the process of counseling—from the first session through termination. Individual chapters look at assessment, at goal setting, at treatment planning, and, finally, at termination. One of the key features that sets this text apart from a standard counseling process text is that it also examines and presents interventions from theoretical perspectives such as Affective Interventions, Cognitive Interventions, Behavioral Interventions, and Systemic Interventions (Chapters 8-11). As a result, interventions are presented not just as techniques, but they are rooted in theory and foundational theraputic perspectives. Chapter 1.
