The Heart of Counseling

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"The latest research in the field demonstrates that the therapeutic relationship is vital for success in counseling and psychotherapy. Jeff and Nancy Cochran's Heart of Counseling is the best available text on how to build and maintain the therapeutic relationship throughout the course of counseling. Its numerous examples and practical advice makes it a valuable resource for counseling students, practicing counselors, and counselor educators." - Howard Kirschenbaum, EdD, author of The Life and Work of Carl Rogers and Values Clarification in Counseling and Psychotherapy.

"An unparalleled resource for students learning counseling skills! Students love the conversational nature of the text, and I value Jeff and Nancy's ability to challenge beginning students to think complexly while providing enough concrete examples to meet developmental needs. The newly added mindfulness and neurobiology sections only increase the text's quality." - Katherine Purswell, PhD, assistant professor of professional counseling at Texas State University

"The Cochrans communicate what is truly important in the process of counseling in a way that beginning students are able to integrate deeply. They set a standard of self-awareness, depth, and relationships as the core of counseling. The authors provoke critical thinking while challenging students' beliefs in a tactfully non-threatening way, an impressive feat in a text." - Hayley Stulmaker, PhD, clinical assistant professor of counseling at the University of Houston "The latest research in the field demonstrates that the therapeutic relationship is vital for success in counseling and psychotherapy.
