Inhaltsangabe

Rather than simply describing career development theories, Foundations of Career Counseling: A Case-Based Approach uses seven realistic, diverse client scenarios to help students connect with the material and master career counseling content and skills. Balancing both theory and application, chapters about the career counseling process, intake interviews, and the use of tests, card sorts, and resources contain transcripts, examples, and sample assessment results from simulated sessions with these fictional clients. Suzanne Dugger’s down-to-earth writing style clearly explains complex concepts in everyday language. Future counselors will develop a thorough understanding of both theory and technique pertaining to career development interventions with children and young adults as well as with adults–including specific populations such as persons with disabilities, military veterans, ex-offenders, homemakers and caretakers transitioning back into the world of work–and even themselves!      KEY TOPICS: Career counseling; Career development; Counseling; School counseling; College counseling; Comprehensive guidance and counseling; employment law; card sorts; job loss; unemployment; job search; adult career transitions; job search for ex-offenders; military to civilian career transition; displaced homemakers; vocational rehabilitation; transition plans for persons with disabilities; globalization; culture; diversity; intake assessments; CTE; career and technical education; postsecondary planning; career genogram.   MARKET: Foundations of Career Counseling: A Case-Based Approach is designed for students taking courses in career counseling.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

During her 25 years as a counselor educator, Dr. Suzanne Dugger has been recognized for her teaching, advising, scholarship, and service to her college, university, and profession. In addition to her experiences as a counselor educator, Dr. Dugger has also provided counseling services and career development support in K-12, college, and private practice settings. These broad and varied experiences have allowed her to develop a book that thoroughly addresses career development and counseling practices in K-12, college, and community settings. She is one of those very rare individuals who is able to create and maintain a nurturing classroom environment while demanding a very high level of performance from her students. Such a balance is evident in this book where a high level of readability is accompanied by a thorough and careful treatment of the content.

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This is the best career counseling text I have seen to date. It thoroughly covers major theories but also includes models, process, employment law, and theory. . . . The writing style is quite good. It is easy to ready and interesting.
