Essentials of Intentional Counseling and Psychotherapy in a Multicultural Society

Ivey/Ivey/Zalaquett's ESSENTIALS OF INTENTIONAL COUNSELING AND PSYCHOTHERAPY IN A MULTICULTURAL WORLD, 4th EDITION, delivers a more concise version of Ivey/Ivey/Zalaquett’s previous text. This edition was intentionally redesigned to provide both relevant and clear information for beginning helpers who are aspiring to provide effective services in a world affected by the COVID-19 pandemic and for our post-pandemic society. The book's multicultural, social justice and advocacy focus reflects the diverse, challenged and stressed nature of today's world.

The 4th EDITION retains the authors' renowned microskills model, which revolutionized modern understanding of the counseling and therapy process by teaching students effective and vital intervention skills step-by-step. The authors break down counseling into manageable micro units and build a bridge between theoretical understanding, learning of the skills and the practice of counseling and psychotherapy.
