Psychological Consultation: Perspectives and Applications

by William A. Wallace

In this application-oriented book, William A. Wallace and Donald L. Hall help students learn how to do consultation by breaking down the theories and processes of psychological consultation into specific skills and applications. The focus of the book is more on the practical than other books for the course; for example, the book offers useful strategies for dealing with resistance, the most consistent problem in consultation. And, flexible and alternate views of consultation are provided, rather than absolute instructions or descriptions.
