“Skills for Helping Professionals is an important addition to the material for teaching helper skills. The inclusion of current theories and issues in helper education is a major contribution to this important area of study.”
“This is one of the most comprehensive books written to date to address helping skills. The table, case illustrations, and other materials enhances the students’ conceptualization of the materials discussed in each chapter.”
“This text refreshingly presents both linear and non-linear developmental theories and it smoothly navigates the wide range of helping skills for “front-line, non-clinical helpers”, counselors and importantly--advocacy skills. The text definitely moves helping skills further into the 21st century.”
“This text provides an outstanding connection between theory and practice, which bridges the gap between skill and application for both graduate and undergraduate students.”
The course that I lead has a professional skills module. This book is great to support the module
Exactly the textbook I needed for the class.
"Skills for Helping Professionals" is a clear and concise approach to undergraduate helping skills. I appreciate that the book can be used to survey different issues related to helping relationships, which will provide a useful framework and approach for our Counseling Center Paraprofessional students, who provide outreach services for the Counseling Center. A little stronger Multicultural Focus would he helpful in future editions.
