Overview

Applying Counseing Theories: An Online, Case-Based Approach offers the power of the Web and the promise of a true understanding of counseling theories. Unique in product design and intellectual approach, it combines a book, interactive cases and web-based learning into one innovative product.  A central goal of this product is to help readers grasp the fundamental principles that govern the application of 16 counseling theories. From Freud to Feminism, the authors distill each theory into core principles for applying each theory. Each chapter translates the formal concepts, assumptions, and techniques of the theory into user-friendly guidelines for working with clients.  Reading the book, one learns the essence of applying each theory and can delve into the original theorist’s work, comprehensive theory books, or eclectic counseling approaches with clarity and understanding.  Each chapter is authored by a counselor or therapist who uses that particular theory as a foundation for his or her work with clients. Three compelling video cases on the companion website (www.prenhall.com/rochlen) caputure the intake interviews of three diverse clients, ranging in age from 17 to 54, and their unique presenting problems and concerns. From each theoretical perspective, users of the website are scaffolded through an analysis of the video cases to help them conceptualize each case using the foundational concepts discussed by the authors in the book.  Flexible enough to support any core theories text, it is also simple enough for all course delivery modes. Using this multi-sensory approach, readers learn what therapists do, why they do it, and how basic theories can be applied in clinical settings.
