Review
“This is a thorough discussion of counseling skills as they relate to the fields of speech-language pathology and audiology. Description and discussion are provided for specific skills needed to be empathetic and effective clinicians dealing with clients and families. When so few SLP/AuD students are provided with in depth information about the counseling that they are expected to use on a daily basis as working professionals, this text is an excellent and timely resource.”Laura Teague, M.A., CCC-SLP, Clinical Instructor, LSHA, ASHA, Louisiana State University, Baton Rouge, LA
“This text is very comprehensive, and takes students from the theories of counseling to the actual practice. It is broad in scope and covers counseling in diverse populations, and helps the students in terms of learning microskills to dealing with difficult situations. This text has much to offer in the breadth of its scope, and in the clinical examples given to the student.”Jean Sawyer, Ph.D., CCC-SLP, Assistant Professor, Illinois State University, Normal, Illinois
