Counseling and Psychotherapy by David Capuzzi

Counseling and Psychotherapy by David Capuzzi

For introductory courses in Theories of Counseling and Psychotherapy.   From two of the best known authors in the counseling profession, comes a freshly-updated fourth edition of this popular text on theories of counseling and psychotherapy.  This unique text examines the theories of counseling and psychotherapy through the eyes of 20 experts in the field who are experienced in the theory they discuss.  Readers will find timely information and a professional perspective that makes each chapter relevant, as an expert discusses the theory and its application in the clinical setting. A consistent case study seamlessly ties together each chapter, reinforcing how theories help organize data and provide guidelines for helping professionals. Because each theory is presented using this standard format and bolstered by a running case study, students will also come away from this text with the cross-theory comparisons they need to decide on their own course of specialized study, and determine a personal perspective on counseling. The fourth edition is thoroughly updated and features a new chapter on diversity, a new chapter on transpersonal theory and social justice, more on feminist theory, more on integrative approaches to counseling and psychotherapy, a chapter on body-centered counseling and psychotherapy, and discussion of personal and professional identity.  These new topics, in addition to an added case study that illustrates how a different theoretical set and associated interventions can influence the direction of counseling, makes this text both substantive and applied, clearlythe ideal text for students who are just beginning their study of counseling and psychotherapy.

Recent praise for COUNSELING & PSYCHOTHERAPY: THEORIES AND INTERVENTIONS:

 

"Students tell me informally and in semester-end evaluations that it (Capuzzi/Gross) is one of the best texts they have ever used..that the authors seem to be speaking directly to them in convincing and interesting ways."

James Gold, Buffalo State

 

"I like the coverage of the main and more alternative/emerging counseling therapies...I like the writing style/s and the fact that there are different authors writing about the different theories."

Markus Bidell, University of New Mexico
