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. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not what I expectedThe book didn't arrive until well into the second week of class and when it finally got there I was expecting it to be in "like new condition" as advertised, but instead it has a lot of highlighting and post-it notes (which now do not want to come out easily) attached to the middle of several pages.

I recommend it. It is a good overview of psychotherapy theories. Rating:  - Excellent SourceI ordered this book while studying for the National Board of Certified Counselor's Exam. (NCC) I was familiar with Corey's textbooks that I used while completing my master's in THE EIGHTIES- but this volume far surpassed my expectations. The volume is filled with information that makes the theories and theorist's discussed so much more available and more easily integrated. I wish the books I had had as an undergrad were so well written and full of useful tables and easily compared information. ...

Rating: - Great Text!This was a very thorough and easy-to-read book about the various theories of counseling and psychotherapy. I, personally, often need "supplemental" things to go with a text to help me learn the material. This book did a great job of explaining the concepts, comparing and contrasting theories, and giving examples of practice and assessment. Although someone else that wrote a review didn't particularly care for the student manual, I found it extremely helpful while preparing for my exams. I read the chapters ... Read More |
