Synopsis

This practical volume covers the basic elements of counselling in an abbreviated outline format. The author presents information that is useful both for beginning counsellors to learn and for experienced counsellors to remember. The text gives definitions of what counselling is, as well as what it is not and focuses on relationship building, the counselling process, and self-exploration, the foundation upon which further intervention is laid. This book is not intended to be the primary text for a course, but is rather a quick reference for both counsellors in training and practitioners, designed to give them immediate access to information without having to read pages of commentary.
