E-book: Principles of Counseling and Psychotherapy: Learning the Essential Domains and Nonlinear Thinking of Master Practitioners

"I wish I had this book during my clinical training. It is a well-designed roadmap for how we think about clients and the clinical process. It would have helped me in the early years to avoid drifting without direction."

Marty Jencius, Professor of Counseling, Kent State University

"The holy grail of effective counseling is to support the complex personal and social issues that affect clients lives in ways that are accessible and transferable. The nonlinear approach pierces through this paradox and gives mental health providers a framework that encourages helpfulness without compromising the rich dimensionality of living. This text is my go-to recommendation for novice counselors entering the profession and for seasoned professionals who might benefit from the virtues of adopting a beginners mindset."

Matthew E. Lemberger-Truelove, Professor of Counseling, University of North Texas

"This book provides a one-of-a-kind opportunity for the reader to gain a comprehensive understanding of the landscape of competent counseling. Organized around seven competency domains, the book goes beyond equipping the reader to learn basic counseling skills. The reader is also prepared to implement essential aspects of effective counseling that are seldom discussed, including the art and skill of thinking like a therapist. Peluso provides relatable examples and vast opportunities for practice in this gem for counseling skills training."
