The Counseling Experience

A Theoretical and Practical Approach, Second Edition

 

Michael E. Cavanagh and Justin E. Levitov

 

This much-anticipated Second Edition continues the tradition of excellence established in the First Edition by offering a theoretically sound, practical approach to counseling. It reflects the insights and advances of two decades of counseling research and clinical experience, including updated clinical examples and new information on ethics, diagnosis, treatment, and psychopharmacology. Its revised philosophical perspectives underlie counseling inititatives in the twenty-first century. The Counseling Experience, Second Edition, is a text that students, counselor educators, and clients will find useful and illuminating. It is not only an invaluable guide as students learn to translate counseling theory into effective clinical practice, but also an indispensable reference as they become seasoned mental health practitioners.
