Foundations of Career Counseling: A Case-Based Approach Hardcover – 12 June 2015
Purchase options and add-ons
For students taking courses in career counseling.
Help future counselors develop an usable understanding of both theory and technique.
Foundations of Career Counseling: A Case-Based Approach is built around a series of case studies that contextualize and bring to life all aspect of career counseling from theories through assessment, intervention, and education. Designed for students taking courses in career counseling, this practical and engaging text places a strong emphasis on diversity and on passing along a clear and concrete grasp of how to do effective career counseling.
Balancing both theory and application, all of the chapters contain case material like transcripts, examples, and sample assessment results that illustrate Suzanne Dugger’s clear explanations of concepts. The text will help future counselors develop a thorough understanding of working with clients across the lifespan (from children through older adults). And the text also provides a good foundation for working with specific populations such as persons with disabilities, military veterans, ex-offenders, homemakers, and caretakers transitioning back into the world of work.

5.0 out of 5 stars It is well written and extremely easy to read
Verified PurchaseThis textbook came on time and was protected with Amazon's usual packaging for textbooks. It is well written and extremely easy to read. While a lot of textbooks can seem dull, I would definitely recommend this book to all professors for career counseling classes.
