Designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice, this text presents vivid examples of how the major counseling approaches (psychoanalytic, Adlerian, existential, personcentered, Gestalt, reality, behavior, cognitivebehavior, family systems, feminist and, new to this edition, postmodern approaches) work with a single client, Ruth. By applying each theory to a single client, Dr. Corey illustrates each therapeutic approach in action and helps clear up misconceptions students might have about how a therapy actually works. Guest commentators (each a wellknown and highly recognized practitioner) discuss Ruth's case based on their perspectives. In some cases, Dr. Corey was able to enlist the founder of a particular therapy such as William Glasser for choice theory and reality therapy, Arnold Lazarus for multimodal therapy, and Albert Ellis for rational emotive behavior therapy.
