Description
"First steps in counselling is essentially a book about helping. This fifth edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to reflect changes in the role and practice of counselling in the 21st century. It is for anyone thinking of becoming a counsellor, working or volunteering in a role that requires heling and listening skills, or simply caring for someone. It explains in clear language what counselling is, the theories on which it is based, how it works and how it is positioned in relation to contemporary debate about culture, politics, language, race and power. This is not a 'how to help' manual; rather it is a questioning, curious, explorative and challenging companion. It aims to be your guide along whichever route you are taking, answer questions and help you decide if you want to take your interest in counselling to the next steps. First steps in counselling remains the text of choice for students and tutors of introductory courses"--Back cover.
