Product Description The third edition of Counseling Techniques follows in its predecessors’ steps, presenting the art and science of counseling in a clear and common-sense manner that makes it accessible for counseling students and seasoned practitioners alike. New to this edition are chapters on play therapy and a host of other updates that illustrate ways to use different techniques in different situations. Counseling Techniques stresses the need to recognize and treat the client within the context of culture, ethnicity, interpersonal resources, and systemic support, and it shows students how to meet these needs using more than five hundred treatment techniques, each of which is accompanied by step-by-step procedures and evaluation methods. Review "Rosemary Thompson has updated her classic Counseling Techniques, providing a clear and articulate guide to working with clients in a holistic, systems, client-center manner. Grounded in solid psychological theory and bridging context, ethics, and integrative modalities, she provides a wide range of evidence-based, best-practice tools. Each chapter is summarized with a counseling intention, providing cross-cultural competencies and affirmative, effective, meaningful, and purposeful techniques for students, families and educational administrators." ―Kirwan Rockefeller, PhD, author of Visualize Confidence: How to Use Guided Imagery to Overcome Self-Doubt andfacultyat Saybrook University "Rosemary Thompson provides a wide array of counseling techniques in this third edition. The chapters present techniques associated with counseling theories; techniques for specific conditions such as conflict, trauma, and grief; a collection of eclectic techniques for groups and family counseling; and chapters on expressive and play therapies. She is careful to provide guidelines for the use of these techniques and the literature related to them. Readers will find thoroughly described techniques that will further the client’s growth, development and understanding." ―Nina W.
