Organized around the latest CACREP standards, Counseling Theory: Guiding Reflective Practice, by Richard D. Parsons and Naijian Zhang, presents theory as an essential component to both counselor identity formation and professional practice. Drawing on the contributions of current practitioners, the text uses both classical and cutting-edge theoretical models of change as lenses for processing client information and developing case conceptualizations and intervention plans. Each chapter provides a snapshot of a particular theory/approach and the major thinkers associated with each theory as well as case illustrations and guided practice exercises to help readers internalize the content presented and apply it to their own development as counselors.
The editors examine current treatment models and programs designed to meet the needs of children, adolescents, adults and the elderly. In-depth presentations of clinical cases from a variety of mental health populations and first person accounts from clients and caregivers illustrate the realities of this work, topics range from families in crisis to acute and chronic stages of mental illness. Several chapters provide clear guidelines for dealing with constraints particular to managed care, mental health law, assessment and treatment intervention, and training and supervision for professional and paraprofessional home-based caregivers.
