This book has been on repeat with me over several years. There is so much information, good information, even great information in this book to inform our practice.
Take the time sit down with Kottler, and learn from the master. He looks at practice from most every perspective.

Though this was a requirement for a class, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. Kottler's straightforwardness provided a clearer vision into the world of counseling and what was to be expected. Never have I ever read a textbook that made me think as hard and at times, laugh out loud as this book. The insight that Kottler provides is immeasurable. Reading this book was like talking with the author himself. Whether in school or a professional in the field, this is a definite must read. I look forward to reading more from this professional. The narration, provided by Rob Shapiro, added so much humanism to the text. I both read and listened to this book and both versions provided a plethora of information and insight...

More than just a school book...

I’ve worked as a counselor in clinical field for some years now and am looking to return to school to be a psychologist. This book helped affirm what I already know about the field but I really enjoyed the last few chapters — well worth to read those particular chapters again.
