George Carpetto ( St. Leo University)

 

 

Basic Approach:

 

This one-of-a-kind book emphasizes integrative approaches, and includes a multitude of counselor-client dialogues that demonstrate successful, tried-and-true strategies.  In order to make learning more effective for students, the book contains a gradient that presents strategies progressing from simple to complex.

 

Text Features:

  • The text covers contemporary issues, including interpersonal problems, homosexuality, sexual promiscuity, internet pornography, gender issues, cohabitation, early retirement and more!
  • Contains an abundance of examples that demonstrate interviewing strategies.
  • A schematic diagram is used to delineate all the recently developed strategies to that point (at the end of Chapter 5).  This then provides a roadmap for the remaining chapters.

 

 

What the reviewers are saying…

 “Carpetto calls for a humble, genuine approach to the client which is consistent with the humanistic perspective he is utilizing, but does so in a manner that is instructional for the beginning student as well as the clinician in early career; this is to be applauded.” 

Linda McIntire, University of Indianapolis

 

 

 “The author is a very good teacher and has worked very hard to assemble a set of assorted and challenging learning activities.  The orientation toward client strengths, collaborative helping relationships, and a worker stance of not-knowing fits well with social work values.  The author does a great job explaining, illustrating, and presenting variations on each of the major strategies.”     James A. Forte, Salisbury University

 

 

 “The author clearly has exceedingly high mastery of his content.  He has a wealth of knowledge to share about each of the models he is writing about.”   Lindee Petersen Wilson, Avila University
