Counseling Across the Lifespan: Prevention and Treatment

Autor Cindy L. Juntunen, Donald R. Atkinson
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 aug 2001
This book focuses on counselling intervention strategies from the unique perspective of an individual's life-span development, and emphasizes preventive techniques that can be used with normally developing persons. The book is organized around the progressive developmental stages - from childhood through older age. The authors identify, chapter by chapter, those issues which counselling interventions can address at each developmental stage - for example, self-identity and healthy lifestyle development in adolescents, family violence in young adults, retirement transitions for older adults. Counselling strategies for each issue are then presented, and chapters feature case studies, discussion questions, and resources for further information.Unlike many other books on counselling strategies, this book's orientation around developmental stages and preventive measures makes it unique.

Descriere

Counseling Across the Lifespan expands the perimeters of counseling with its emphasis on preventive techniques for adjustment problems in the lifespan of a normal individual. This cogent work focuses on counseling intervention strategies from the unique perspective of an individual’s lifespan, placing techniques in the proper development context.
By concentrating on life stages—from childhood through old age—the authors identify the nature and origin of various psychological issues such as self-identity and healthy lifestyle development in adolescents, family violence in young adults, or retirement transitions for older adults. The intervention tools needed to confront these issues are presented through succinct pedagogical features including case examples, checklists for evaluating clients, and exercises.
