theory and practice of self-supervision and provides counselors and
human service professionals with a plan for the pursuit of
independent professional growth. Beginning with a historical
overview and discussion of the counselor-client relationship,
boundary transgressions, the counselor's family-of-origin and
unresolved issues, and disclosure styles, the author provides the
reader with a foundation for understanding the issues that must be
examined when evaluating one's own work. He then outlines the
reflective process and describes the actual practice, guiding
principles, and strategies for self-supervision. Finally the author
presents several proactive measures for counselor self-care that
readers will find useful.

The purpose of The Pain of Helping is to provide a source that
identifies, condenses, and consolidates information pertaining to
psychological injury. In addition to providing details regarding
construct definition, information pertaining to symptomatology,
assessment instruments (e.g. structured interview, questionnaires),
treatment options, leading theoreticians, journals, books, and web
sites are also included. This book will serve as a primary source
and directory for additional information pertaining to
psychological injury. To date, there has not been a concerted
effort to synthesize and consolidate the literature of
psychological injury and present this valuable information in a
systematic and methodological fashion.

Interviews comprise the majority of professionals' interactions
with children. In order to conduct effective interviews,
professionals must possess effective communication skills, as well
as knowledge of growth and developmental issues, data collection,
and analysis.
Though this is an important area of study, there has yet to be a
book that effectively addresses this topic. In most cases, students
studying to become clinicians are forced to rely on the
observations of practicing professionals to learn child-focused
interview techniques.
"Effective Interviewing of Children" is unique in that it is the
only comprehensive resource for information on child-focused
interviews. The authors differentiate between child- and
adult-focused interviews, present an integrated account of the
literature on child-focused interviews, and offer techniques and
suggestions for addressing developmental differences. Chapters
address a wide range of topics including child and professional
variables, effective useof language, children with special needs,
ethics in interviewing, research interviews, and diagnostic
clinical interviews.
Aimed at upper-level undergraduate and graduate students, this book
is essential for clinically oriented programs such as mental health
counseling, social work, psychology, and marriage and family
therapy. The book is also of interest to practicing professionals
who seek to expand their knowledge of child-focused interview
techniques.
Traditional systems of supervision provide counselors and other helping professionals with the support and feedback necessary for effective treatment and continued professional growth. Yet with cuts in our health care system and increasing needs in remote areas, the contact and personnel requirements of traditional supervision are not always feasible. In these cases, the self-supervision process can provide the practitioner with a valuable, yet cost-free, tool for professional growth and quality assurance in treatment. Indeed, this deliberate process of reflection on intrapersonal, interpersonal, and clinical issues that influence one's work is of tremendous value to practitioners with and without the benefit of traditional supervision. Self-Supervision: A Primer for Counselors and Human Service Professionals systhesizes past and current literature on the theory and practice of self-supervision, drawing on contributions froma wide variety of disciplines. Beginning with a historical overview and discussion of the counselor-client relationship, boundary transgressions, the counselor's family-of-origin and unresolved issues, and disclosure styles, Patrick J. Morrissette provides the reader with a foundation for understanding the issues that must be examined when evaluating one's own work. He then outlines the reflective process and describes actual practice, guiding principles, and strategies for self-supervision. Finally presented are proactive measures for counselor self-care. 'Know thyself,' Socrates said when he advised his students pursue a path of self-education and self-discovery: the path, he said, to virtue. Indeed, no matter what one's profession, self-knowledge is an invaluable resource, but the means to its development not always intuitive. Self-Supervision provides counselors and human service professionals with a plan for the pursuit of self-knowledge, a working model for the independent direction of their own professional growth.
