Reviews

"Corey's book provides a consistent format for describing and critiquing the major counseling theories. The consistent structure allows students to compare and contrast theories more easily."

"I applaud your attempts to work multicultural issues into each of the chapters Multicultural issues appear to provide greater relevance when dealt within the context of a specific theory, or better yet, specific culture."

"The book is well-organized and written in a style that is easy to read and integrate. Pains were taken to make sure that material is current and reflects movement within each of the approaches. Students react favorably to the text (past edition) since they find the material easier to understand and grasp (for later recall!) than some of their texts."
