Synopsis

Incorporating the thinking, feeling and behaving dimensions of human experience, the Eleventh Edition of Corey's best-selling text offers an easy-to-understand guide to help you compare and contrast the therapeutic models expressed in counseling theories. This wide-ranging text provides a thorough introduction to major theories including psychoanalytic, Adlerian, existential, person-centered, Gestalt, reality, behavior, cognitive-behavior, family systems, feminist, postmodern and integrative approaches. With his trademark style, the author also demonstrates how each theory can be applied to two cases ("Stan" and “Gwen”), providing valuable practical insights and helping you learn to integrate the theories into an individualized counseling style. In addition, the text features engaging media resources, available through MindTap, such as case-focused videos to help bring the material vividly to life.
