The sixth edition of this seminal
textbook offers an updated model for aspiring helping professionals to
enhance their clinical skills.
Significant updates to this edition include:
- new
interactive features to improve student learning, including
self-reflection exercises to help them cultivate their own values and
perspectives as helpers and role-play activities for hands-on
learning;
- updated case examples and reflection questions that reflect a broad range of diversity among clients and providers;
- a shift from a stage-based model to a more fluid, goal-based model of helping skills; and
- empirical updates that help students understand the importance of tailoring interventions to clients’ individual needs.
Clara
Hill’s helping skills model consists of three main goals—exploration,
insight, and action—in which helpers guide clients in exploring their
thoughts and feelings, discovering the origins and consequences of
maladaptive thoughts and behaviors, and creating positive long‑term
change.
This easy-to-read guide synthesizes Hill’s extensive
clinical and classroom experience with fresh, unique insights from
coauthors Harold Chui and Judy Gerstenblith. They teach fundamental
theory and provide students with clinical skills, challenge them to
think critically about the helping process, and enable them to develop
their own unique approach to helping clients.
