Synopsis
Richard Sharf goes beyond simply presenting theory to show the reader how to apply the principles in a counseling setting, making this book useful for both practicing counselors and counselors-in-training. Sharf covers three major theoretical areas (trait and type, life-span, and special-focus theories) in Parts I-III, then discusses theoretical integration in Part IV, with each theory providing a unique perspective on career development. In addition, the book offers numerous case examples, discusses career testing from a practical and theoretical perspective, and integrates labor-market information with career theory.

About the Author
Richard S. Sharf has been a counseling psychologist at the Center for Counseling and Student Development at the University of Delaware for 37 years, providing counseling to university students. He also was the internship coordinator for the Psychology Doctoral Internship program. In addition, he taught graduate courses in counseling in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies. In writing THEORIES OF PSYCHOTHERAPY AND COUNSELING: CONCEPTS AND CASES, he corresponded with over 70 experts on theories of psychotherapy to ensure that the book is accurate and up to date. He is also author of APPLYING CAREER DEVELOPMENT THEORY TO COUNSELING, 6th Edition (©2014, Cengage Learning).
Review
"In my opinion, the author did an excellent job of covering the essential topics in a logical sequence. There are many (and varied) examples and case studies that highlight specific career counseling issues."
"I would describe the Sharf text as an up-to-date comprehensive examination of applying career development theory to the counseling setting. It is a well-researched and well-organized text for students with a background in the helping professions."
"While other career texts briefly underline the basic concepts of the theories, Sharf's text goes into detail. He describes the applicability of the theories to marginalized groups well. The case scenarios are a wonderful addition to this text."
