Essential Theories of Counseling and Psychotherapy First Edition by Carlos P. Zalaquett Book PDF Summary
Essential Theories of Counseling and Psychotherapy: Everyday Practice in Our Diverse World is the first book to provide an integrated presentation of relational competencies, microskills, and theories. Clear and concise, it gives an overview of current theories, presents best-known evidence-based relationships and practices, and explains how theories apply to counseling and psychotherapy. Students not only learn about the traditional theories such psychodynamic, behavioral, existential, humanistic, cognitive/behavioral, and multicultural, but also learn newer theories on motivational interviewing, solution focused, and ACT. In addition, neuroscience findings are integrated to show how psychotherapy changes our brains. Student learning is enhanced via reflection and applied exercises, theory application examples, and case demonstrations to reinforce student learning. The book's unique focus on multicultural and social justice awareness, knowledge, skills, and actions fills a gap and helps students bridge what they learn in the classroom with the application of theory in the real world. Intended for both graduate and undergraduate courses, Essential Theories of Counseling and Psychotherapy is an ideal foundational text for theory courses found in departments of counseling, psychology, human services, marriage and family therapy, and counselor education.
