Review

"The Cormier, Nurius, and Osborn text presents interviewing and change strategies within a carefully-researched but very readable format. The crucial importance of building a strong client/counselor relationship is clearly articulated in all of its relevant ingredients. Following this exposition, conceptualizing and assessment with goal setting and treatment planning are carefully examined. Finally, a variety of cognitive behavioral strategies are carefully reviewed with remarkable clarity. Throughout the text, attention is devoted to diversity issues, the client's ecology, and a multidisciplinary helping approach. Valuable learning exercises, client illustrations, and model dialogues are also included for many of the strategies described. A careful reading of this text by your students would ensure that they have been exposed to the fundamental skills and strategies needed for a beginning helper. . . . Graduates will choose to retain this book indefinitely as a reference in their professional library."
