Reviews

“John and Rita Sommers-Flanagan have written an extraordinarily practical text for students wishing to learn usable counseling principles. Their brilliant scholarship is balanced by a superb treatment of counseling theory that includes a review of the strengths, limitations, and ways for applying the systems represented.” — Robert Wubbolding, EdD, Professor Emeritus, Xavier University; Director, Center for Reality Therapy; author of Reality Therapy (Theories of Psychotherapy Series)

This introductory textbook is written with amazing care and attention to detail. Not only is it one of the best resources I know of for detailed coverage of classical therapeutic theory, but it is also one of the best at revealing cutting-edge developments, both in theory and application. Readers will greatly benefit from the comprehensiveness, clarity, and personal perceptiveness of this appealing introductory guide.” — Kirk J.
