Clinical Mental Health Counseling
Elements of Effective Practice

Edited by:


October 2016 | 480 pages | SAGE Publications, Inc
Referencing the 2016 CACREP standards, Clinical Mental Health Counseling: Elements of Effective Practice combines solid foundational information with practical application for a realistic introduction to work in community mental health settings. Top experts in the field cover emerging models for clinical interventions as they explore cutting-edge approaches to CMH counseling. With case studies integrated throughout, students will be well prepared to move into practicum and internship courses as well as field-based settings.

“An instant classic. Young and Cashwell have assembled a stellar group of counselor education authors and produced an outstanding, comprehensive, and easy-to-read text that clearly articulates and elevates the discipline of clinical mental health counseling. This book covers everything a CMHC needs to hit the ground running in clinical practice!"

Bradley T. Erford, Loyola University Maryland, Past President of the American Counseling Association
