This text provides the foundation from which counseling students can begin to build a professional identity and explore the many avenues that a career in counseling can provide. Additionally, it advances the need for self-care and reflection as a necessity for all professional counselors. - Perry C. Francis, EdD, NCC, ACS, LPC, professor and counseling training clinic coordinator at Eastern Michigan University, USA This text is an outstanding blend of personal and professional considerations for today's counselors. It is written in an honest, engaging style that with personal reflections as well as timely professional themes. A must read for beginning counselors in particular! - Allison Crowe, East Carolina University, USA In this book, Shannon Hodges astutely identifies the challenges that are inherent in professional counseling; equally important, he lays out the rich opportunities that are an exciting part of our contemporary professional landscape. He adroitly outlines the fundamental nuts and bolts of professional counseling as both a science and an art, but he further emphasizes the crucial role of the process of self-discovery in this professional journey. The message of this book is essential in the developmental preparation of professional counseling students. I wish that I had had this textbook, nearly 46 years ago, when I embarked on the becoming and being dimensions of my preservice counselor education training! - Lisa Lopez Levers, PhD, LPCC-S, LPC, CRC, NCC, professor of counselor education & human development, Duquesne University, USA
