Counseling Theory- Theoretical Orientation

This assignment is due Friday by 8pm January 5, 2018. This is a discussion with a minimum of 200 words

In this module, you about the selection and importance of a theoretical orientation in counseling and psychotherapy. OF equal importance is to incorporate your theoretical orientation into practice. Assignments in this module were designed to guide you toward increased insight into the importance of theoretical orientation, how theoretical orientation and the advantages and disadvantages of empirically validated therapies, and steps to increase your self-awareness so that you may initiate a process of theory development. Another significant goal of this module was to help you develop a timeline for successful completion of the major assignment in the course, which is a theoretical orientation development plan paper, due later in the course (see weekly schedule on the syllabus).

Tasks:

As counselors-in-training develop knowledge and skills their theoretical orientation becomes a “tool belt.” Using your reading as a guide, identify and discuss the relevance of two specific “tools” you would include in your “tool belt.” Include information from the chapter readings to support your response.

Submission Details:

The initial DQ post is due in the Discussion Area on Friday, January 5, 2018 .You must post your initial response to the DQ prior to reading your classmates posts.

Preface to Tenth Edition

T his book is intended for counseling courses for undergraduate and graduate students in psychology, counselor education, human services, and the mental health professions. It surveys the major concepts and practices of the contemporary therapeutic systems and addresses some ethical and professional issues in counsel- ing practice. The book aims to teach students to select wisely from various theories and techniques and to begin to develop a personal style of counseling.

I have found that students appreciate an overview of the divergent contempo- rary approaches to counseling and psychotherapy. They also consistently say that the first course in counseling means more to them when it deals with them person- ally. Therefore, I stress the practical applications of the material and encourage per- sonal reflection. Using this book can be both a personal and an academic learning experience.

In this tenth edition, every effort has been made to retain the major qualities that students and professors have found useful in the previous editions: the succinct overview of the key concepts of each theory and their implications for practice, the straightforward and personal style, and the book’s comprehensive scope. Care has been taken to present the theories in an accurate and fair way. I have attempted to be simple, clear, and concise. Because many students want suggestions for supple- mentary reading as they study each therapy approach, I have included an updated reading list at the end of each chapter and a list of references for each chapter at the end of the book.

This tenth edition updates the material and refines existing discussions. Part 1 deals with issues that are basic to the practice of counseling and psychotherapy. Chapter 1 puts the book into perspective, then students are introduced to the counselor—as a person and a professional—in Chapter 2. This chapter addresses a number of topics pertaining to the role of the counselor as a person and the ther- apeutic relationship. Chapter 3 introduces students to some key ethical issues in counseling practice, and several of the topics in this chapter have been updated and expanded. Expanded coverage is given to the ACA’s 2014 Code of Ethics.

Part 2 is devoted to a consideration of 11 theories of counseling. Each of the theory chapters follows a common organizational pattern, and students can easily compare and contrast the various models. This pattern includes core topics such as key concepts, the therapeutic process, therapeutic techniques and procedures, mul- ticultural perspectives, the theory applied to the case of Stan and new to this edition to the case of Gwen, and summary and evaluation. In this tenth edition, each of the chapters in Part 2 has been revised, updated, and expanded to reflect recent trends, and references have been updated as well. Revisions were based on the recommenda- tions of experts in each theory, all of whom are listed in the Acknowledgments sec- tion. Attention was given to current trends and recent developments in the practice of each theoretical approach.

xii PrefaCe to tenth edition

Each of the 11 theory chapters summarizes key points and evaluates the con- tributions, strengths, limitations, and applications of these theories. Special atten- tion is given to evaluating each theory from a multicultural perspective as well, with a commentary on the strengths and shortcomings of the theory in working with diverse client populations. The consistent organization of the summary and evalu- ation sections makes comparing theories easier. Students are given recommenda- tions regarding where to look for further training for all of the approaches in the Where To Go From Here sections at the end of the chapter. Updated annotated lists of reading suggestions along with DVD resources are offered to stimulate students to expand on the material and broaden their learning.

In Part 3, Chapter 15 develops the notion that an integrative approach to coun- seling practice is in keeping with meeting the needs of diverse client populations in many different settings. Numerous tables and other integrating material help stu- dents compare and contrast the 11 approaches.

What’s new in This Tenth edition Features of the tenth edition include Learning Objectives for all the theory chapters; Self-Reflection and Discussion Questions at the end of each theory chapter to facilitate thinking and interaction in class; and a new Case of Gwen, who is a composite of many clients, to complement the Case of Stan feature. Guest contributor Dr. Kel- lie Kirksey describes her way of working with Gwen from each of the theoretical perspectives.

Chapter 15 (“An Integrative Perspective”) pulls together themes from all 11 theo- retical orientations. This chapter represents a major revision of the discussion of the psychotherapy integration movement; updates of the various integrative approaches; revision of the section on integration of spirituality in counseling; added material on research demonstrating the therapeutic alliance; expanded discussion on the central role of the client in determining therapy outcomes; new section on feedback-informed treatment; and updated coverage of the conclusions from the research literature on the effectiveness of psychotherapy. New to this chapter are two cases (Stan and Gwen) that illustrate integrative approaches. Chapter 15 develops the notion that an integrative approach to counseling practice is in keeping with meeting the needs of diverse client populations in many different settings. Numerous tables and other integrating mate- rial help students compare and contrast the 11 approaches.

This text can be used in a flexible way. Some instructors will follow the sequenc- ing of chapters in the book. Others will prefer to begin with the theory chapters (Part 2) and then deal later with the student’s personal characteristics and ethical issues. The topics can be covered in whatever order makes the most sense. Readers are offered some suggestions for using this book in Chapter 1.

In this edition I have made every effort to incorporate those aspects that have worked best in the courses on counseling theory and practice that I teach. To help readers apply theory to practice, I have also revised the Student Manual, which is designed for experiential work. The Student Manual for Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy still contains open-ended questions, many new cases for explora- tion and discussion, structured exercises, self-inventories, and a variety of activities that can be done both in class and out of class. The tenth edition features a struc- tured overview, as well as a glossary, for each of the theories, and chapter quizzes for assessing the level of student mastery of basic concepts. New to this tenth edition of the Student Manual are experiential exercises for the Case of Gwen and questions raised by experts in each of the theory chapters. Each expert addresses the same six ques- tions as applied to each of the given theories.

MindTap™ is a new online resource available to accompany this textbook. It contains the video program for Theory and Practice of Counseling and Psychotherapy: The Case of Stan and Lecturettes, a glossary of key terms, interviews with experts (questions and answers by experts in the various theories), and case examples for each of the theories illustrating ways of applying these concepts and techniques to a counseling case. A concise version of working with Stan from an integrative perspective now appears in Chapter 15. Chapter 16, “Case Illustration: An Integrative Approach in Working With Stan,” has been deleted from this edition but is available on Mind- Tap™. A chapter covering Transactional Analysis is also available on MindTap™.

Case Approach to Counseling and Psychotherapy (Eighth Edition) features experts working with the case of Ruth from the various therapeutic approaches. The case- book, which is now available online, can supplement this book or stand alone.

Accompanying this tenth edition of the text and Student Manual are lecturettes on how I draw from key concepts and techniques from the various theories pre- sented in the book. This DVD program has been developed for student purchase and use as a self-study program, and it completes an ideal learning package. The Art of Integrative Counseling (Third Edition), which expands on the material in Chapter 15 of the textbook, also complements this book.

Some professors have found the textbook and the Student Manual or MindTap™ to be ideal companions and realistic resources for a single course. Others like to use the textbook and the casebook as companions. With this revision it is now possible to have a unique learning package of several books, along with the DVD for Integra- tive Counseling: The Case of Ruth and Lecturettes. The Case Approach to Counseling and Psy- chotherapy and the Art of Integrative Counseling can also be used in a various classes, a few of which include case-management practicum, fieldwork courses, or counseling techniques courses.

Also available is a revised and updated Instructor’s Resource Manual, which includes suggestions for teaching the course, class activities to stimulate interest, PowerPoint presentations for all chapters, and a variety of test questions and a final examina- tion. This instructor’s manual is now geared for the following learning package:

2 CHAPTER ONE

Introduction Counseling students can begin to acquire a counseling style tailored to their own personality by familiarizing themselves with the major approaches to therapeu- tic practice. This book surveys 11 approaches to counseling and psychotherapy, presenting the key concepts of each approach and discussing features such as the therapeutic process (including goals), the client–therapist relationship, and spe- cific procedures used in the practice of counseling. This information will help you develop a balanced view of the major ideas of each of the theories and acquaint you with the practical techniques commonly employed by counselors who adhere to each approach. I encourage you to keep an open mind and to seriously consider both the unique contributions and the particular limitations of each therapeutic system presented in Part 2.

You cannot gain the knowledge and experience you need to synthesize various approaches by merely completing an introductory course in counseling theory. This process will take many years of study, training, and practical counseling experience. Nevertheless, I recommend a personal integration as a framework for the profes- sional education of counselors. When students are presented with a single model and are expected to subscribe to it alone, their effectiveness will be limited when working with a diverse range of future clients.

An undisciplined mixture of approaches, however, can be an excuse for failing to develop a sound rationale for systematically adhering to certain concepts and to the techniques that are extensions of them. It is easy to pick and choose fragments from the various therapies because they support our biases and preconceptions. By studying the models presented in this book, you will have a better sense of how to integrate concepts and techniques from different approaches when defining your own personal synthesis and framework for counseling.

Each therapeutic approach has useful dimensions. It is not a matter of a theory being “right” or “wrong,” as every theory offers a unique contribution to understand- ing human behavior and has unique implications for counseling practice. Accepting the validity of one model does not necessarily imply rejecting other models. There is a clear place for theoretical pluralism, especially in a society that is becoming increasingly diverse.

Although I suggest that you remain open to incorporating diverse approaches into your own personal synthesis—or integrative approach to counseling—let me caution that you can become overwhelmed and confused if you attempt to learn everything at once, especially if this is your introductory course in counseling theories. A case can be made for initially getting an overview of the major theoreti- cal orientations, and then learning a particular approach by becoming steeped in that approach for some time, rather than superficially grasping many theoretical approaches. An integrative perspective is not developed in a random fashion; rather, it is an ongoing process that is well thought out. Successfully integrating concepts and techniques from diverse models requires years of reflective practice and a great deal of reading about the various theories. In Chapter 15 I discuss in more depth some ways to begin designing your integrative approach to counseling practice.
