Introduction to Counseling: An Art and Science Perspective provides students with an accessible overview of the counseling profession and also demonstrates how fundamental counseling concepts can be employed to successfully address everyday life challenges. The book posits that counseling is both an art and a science, highlighting the balance between the subjective and objective dimensions of counseling.

The first part of the book offers students an introduction to the counseling profession and the counseling process, introducing them to conceptual models for counseling, legal and ethical issues, and assessment, research, and evaluation. The second part of the text provides information on multicultural counseling and counseling theories, emphasizing models that are inclusive and adaptive. The final part of the text identifies special approaches and modalities that are helpful in the treatment of diverse populations in particular settings, including children and adolescents in school settings, individuals with mental health issues in hospitals, clinics, and private practices, and more.

The sixth edition of Introduction to Counseling features increased focus on professional identity of counselors, content on wellness and positive psychology, increased focus and awareness of social justice issues and advocacy as important dimensions of multicultural counseling, new information on technology-assisted methods of counseling, increased focus on the role of neuroscience in counseling, updated information on the changes in ethical codes, and new guidelines for diagnosis in DSM-5. Presenting timely and critical information in an approachable way, the text is a valuable resource for undergraduate and graduate-level students pursuing helping professions.
