Condition: Muy bueno. : Este libro es una introducción completa a los temas actuales en la teoría y práctica de la consejería. Cubre todos los enfoques centrales de la consejería en su totalidad: psicodinámico, cognitivo-conductual, centrado en la persona e integrador. El autor adopta un enfoque crítico y cuestionador de los problemas de la práctica profesional, incluida la formación y la supervisión, la organización de las agencias de consejería, los dilemas éticos, la consejería intercultural y el papel de la investigación. Prestando especial atención a las influencias sociales y culturales en la consejería, como el impacto del feminismo, McLeod argumenta que la consejería debe considerarse como un área de estudio interdisciplinaria, que se basa en la filosofía, la religión y las artes, así como en la psicología.
