Synopsis

Counseling in the field of communication disorders is an essential dimension of professional practice, but just what it entails is often a bit of a mystery. This textbook addresses this common concern of students and practitioners by illustrating how to integrate the concept of counseling into clinical practice. Replete with a variety of case studies, clinical guidelines, and actual transcripts of counseling interventions with clients and their families, as well as a practical "toolbox" of specific counseling methods, Dr. DiLollo and Dr. Neimeyer offer a comprehensive, novel, and empirically informed approach to counseling, applicable to a broad range of speech, language, swallowing, and hearing disorders.

About this title

Review:

Bob Volin, Associate Professor at New York Medical College, School of Health Sciences and Practice, (November 2014): "The strength of the text is that the authors have synthesized several approaches to counseling in a way that is not at all confusing or intimidating for students, and in the process they provide a strong message that effective counseling is well within the capability of the SLP. Many authors have said "You should do this," but DiLollo and Neimeyer make a convincing case for " You CAN do this." That's been the crux of my counseling course for years!"
