About This Item
New York: McGraw Hill Higher Education, 2009. 1st ed.. Hardback small quarto, no jacket as issued, pictorial cover, as new condition. Heavy (1.0 Kg), and extra postage may be requested to destinations outside Australia. 541 pp. First edition. Modern counseling and psychotherapy practices require practitioners to grasp and respond to a continually changing context. This comprehensive and contemporary introduction to the field by Carol Shaw Austad prepares students to engage productively with a variety of theoretical models, practice settings, and patient problems. The author draws on her experience as a practicing therapist and professor in presenting theory, practice, and research in a clear and compelling style. Starting with the big picture of psychotherapy within its sociocultural context and fundamental issues, she then reviews the major theoretical models. Students are encouraged to develop a mental model that helps them to compare and contrast key features of each theory and to understand the settings in which each best applies.
