Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I have not seen a more comprehensive and readable text available for counseling and psychotherapy trainees preparing for their practical experience. Targeting the beginner, this book offers guidance and insight for several aspects of the training experience that are often overlooked or underemphasized by instructors. More advanced trainees will benefit from this text as well. The chapter on Clinical Writing is the clearest discussion of this subject that I have seen, giving understandable examples of common problems exhibited by trainees, and practical advice for improvement of clinical writing skills. Chapters on stresses encountered in the profession, and self-care strategies for the counselor will not only provide sound advice, but will serve to validate burnout-prevention practices to a student population that is often already over-extended. I can't tell you how pleased I am to be able to offer this book to my students.
