Synopsis
The seventh edition of Gibson & Mitchell's Introduction to Counseling and Guidance retains its logical progression of topics, while introducing the latest technologies, concepts, and applications in the counselor's repertoire. As they have in previous editions, the authors present practical examples and discussions of all of the major facets of counseling in a wide variety of counselors' work settings. The authors include a thorough treatment of techniques of assessment, including an overview of standardized testing and discussion of subjective approaches to appraisal€”observation, self-reporting, and others. And they give the vital topics of program evelopment/management and legal/ethical issues their due, by giving them their own chapters. For professionals in the field of counseling.

From the Publisher
A comprehensive introduction to counseling services as provided through a wide variety of service delivery milieus, both school and non-school. Rather than an in-depth treatment of a few topics, this text offers a broad-based, general discussion, the goal of which is to provide an understanding of five major facets of counseling: 1) the historical perspective of counseling and current activities of counselors; 2) the role and function of counselors in a variety of settings; 3) techniques used by counselors; 4) the organization of counseling programs; and, 5) legal and ethical guidelines for prospective counselors. First page to last, material is presented in an appealing, informal style that makes it readable and enjoyable as well as informative.
From the Back Cover
Comprehensive introduction to counseling services in both school and nonschool settings. Uses lots of practical examples. This edition contains expanded coverage of counseling "special populations" (e.g. multicultural clients, clients with disabilities) and covers issues like counselors as expert witnesses.
