[This text is] excellent in conceptualizing the process [and] sequencing activities. The questions suggested for each stage are very good. The updated information about issues in current practice and health coverage are also excellent., There is simply no better book for the purpose of giving students a clear understanding, in a concise format, of how to conceptualize and then work with a client. Further, this is the best book I've seen for giving students opportunities to practice specific skills., 1. Introduction.2. The Helping Relationship.3. Communication Skills.4.
