Hardback. Condition: Good. Matters of Interpretation presents and develops a self-reflective approach to therapeutic interventions and psychosocial research that is particularly relevant to working with children and adolescents at risk for negative life outcomes. The approach recognizes the value-laden aspects of human science and allows for the integration of the therapist's and the researcher's values into the processes of psychological inquiry and clinical or counseling psychology.

These original and very personal reflections document the students' in-depth self-assessment as applied developmentalists?counselors, therapists, and educators. The students find that working with clients using this approach is a deeply transformative process as it r.…
