Developed for helping professionals, the third edition of
Counseling Theory and Practice explains what it means to be an
effective helper, discusses foundations of classic counseling and
psychotherapy theories, and provides an overview of emerging
theories. Chapter 1 examines the efficacy of counseling and
therapy, ethical concerns of counseling practice and provides
students the opportunity to examine their view of human nature and
how it aligns with the theories in the text. The rest of the book
examines classic and emerging theories. Section 1 explores
psychodynamic approaches, including psychoanalysis, Jungian
therapy, and Adlerian therapy. Section 2 is devoted to
existential-humanistic approaches such as existential therapy,
Gestalt therapy, and person-centered counseling, while Section 3
discusses cognitive-behavioral approaches, including cognitive
behavior therapy (CBT), rational-emotive behavior therapy (REBT),
and reality therapy (RT). Section 4 describes post-modern therapies
including narrative therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, and
relational cultural therapy, a form of feminist therapy. New to
this edition is the last section on the emerging theories of
acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), dialectical behavior
therapy (DBT), and neurocounseling. In this edition, Ed Neukrug is
joined by Danica Hays, who uses her expertise on efficacy, cultural
diversity, and gender issues to enhance each chapter. In addition
to the new chapters on emerging theories, the text uses inclusive
language and fully updated references, adds new vignettes, and
highlights existing videos and websites created by Dr. Neukrug.
This book is accompanied by an expanded Cognella Active Learning
component for students comprised of videos, reflection exercises,
PowerPoint slideshows, flashcards, and quizzes in a digital
environment. This is an ideal text for both pre-service
professionals and those already in the field. Watch Ed Neukrug
discuss what makes the third edition of Counseling Theory and
Practice an ideal resource for classroom use here.
