Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy: Manual

by Gerald Corey

This revision of Gerald Corey's best-selling text introduces students to the major theories of counseling (psychoanalytic, Adlerian, existential, person-centered, Gestalt, reality, behavior, cognitive-behavior, family systems, feminist and, NEW to this edition, postmodern approaches) and demonstrates how each theory can be applied to a single case ("Stan"). Reviewed by 27 of the field's leading experts, Corey's Seventh Edition covers the major concepts of counseling theories, shows students how to apply those theories in practice, and helps them learn to integrate the theories into an individualized counseling style. Incorporating the thinking, feeling, and behaving dimensions of human experience, Corey offers an easy-to-understand text that helps students compare and contrast the therapeutic models. This book is the center of a suite of products that include a revised student manual, a revised casebook, a companion text, and an all-new CD-ROM.

I loved this book! I think it had a lot to do with why I liked the class so much. This book actually helps put the counseling process and the theories used in counseling in an easy to understand manner. However, there is a lot of reading in it, and some of the information can seem overwhelming. But, overall, it is written in an easy to understand manner.
