A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture

A unique new entrant into the counseling market, Counseling Today: Foundations of Professional speaks to the current generation of counseling students in ways they learn best–by using effective pedagogical aids, by presenting real life scenarios, and by tying content to MyHelpingLab, a powerful online resource.

 

The authors have done a fantastic job of presenting information relative to today’s practice of counseling and have updated information on aspects of the field related to the practice of professional counseling in the 21st century. Based on what I have seen, there really are no areas of the book that would detract me from adopting it.
