Here’s what your colleagues are saying about this book:

 

"I am impressed with the author’s conversational writing style. The material is well explained and easy to follow. The examples are excellent both in placement (after each new skill) and in complexity."       Casey A. Barrio - University of North Texas

 

 

"Humanistic and person-centered therapists will see this as a strong introduction into the skills and contexts of counseling. In addition, the stress on the subjectivity and artistic nature of the counseling process will resonate with many clinicians and counselors."

Arthur Lyons - Moravian College

 

 

"The text appears to be well-suited for beginning students and is arranged in such a way that instructors may easily supplement global information in the text with information specific to various fields of study."

Joshua Gold - University of South Carolina
