Review

"The major strength of the new edition is that it is a very comprehensive presentation of the major concerns a person beginning a career as a clinical or counseling psychologist must confront, (and) the abilities they must develop to assess and intervene with clients. The content and style is such that the reader can learn to apply the knowledge rather than just knowing it. It shows a sensitivity to diversity issues in practice and covers a range of interviewing, assessment, and intervention skills essential to practitioners in the helping professions. It provides an integration of a range of theoretical positions in such a way that students can develop an integrated approach to helping. . . . The inclusion of material on process and outcome evaluation is timely in light of demands for evidence-based treatment by both public and private third-party funding agencies." "This book offers the professional helper a wealth of information regarding the interview process and strategies for intervention. . . . The general art of interviewing is demonstrated with excellent attention given to factors of cultural and human diversity. The content also identifies the current problems that clients are faced with today, and offers traditional and exciting holistic strategies for intervention. The content is in touch with the realities of today's society."
