The only theory text to provide truly integrated discussion of multicultural competencies and clients, this current and practical resource has been revised and reorganized to make it more easily used in your course.  

 

In response to requests from many faculty, the 6th Edition of Theories of Counseling and Psychotherapy: A Multicultural Perspective has broken out more of the theoretical approaches into their own dedicated chapters, including new,  highly-praised chapters on Positive Psychology and Feminist Counseling and Therapy.   The text continues to be the most detailed and specific of all texts in terms of helping students actually practice counseling and psychotherapy. The "Competency Building" features provide students with specifics of how to use major strategies, allowing practical demonstration that they can actually engage in the theory as well as understand it.

  • Provides a review of critical microskills necessary to master important theories rapidly and effectively.
  • Explores the influence of new movements in the field of counseling and psychotherapy.
  • Includes Competency Building activities in every chapter, offering prospective counselors multiple opportunities to develop practical and necessary skills.
  • Covers the major theories in detail with current information and research.
  • Research Exhibit features highlight new and significant findings within the field and offer contemporary perspectives on traditional approaches.

 

  • Revised chapter on Charting the Theoretical Changes in Counseling and Psychology (Ch. 1).
  • NEW chapter on The Multicultural-Feminist-Social Justice Movement (Ch. 2).
  • NEW chapter on the influence of Positive Psychology and Wellness Counseling on the field (Ch. 3).
  • NEW chapter on Adlerian and Jungian Counseling and Therapy (Ch. 6).
  • NEW chapter on Rational-Emotive-Behavioral Therapy (REBT) and Reality Therapy (Ch. 8).
  • NEW chapter on Feminist Counseling and Therapy (Ch. 11).
  • NEW “Professional Development Extension” features in every chapter expand students' perspectives for applying their knowledge, training, and skills in real world settings.  
  • Multimedia Resources for this Chapter sections at the end of every chapter highlight the corresponding video footage and other material available on the texts' open-access Companion Website (www.ablongman.com/ivey6e) and the PIN-coded MyHelpingLab (www.myhelpinglab.com).  These rich media resources expand the reader’s understanding of the chapter content  by presenting actual client sessions, cases, links to relevant and helpful professional sites, and more.  Information for packaging PINcodes to MyHelpingLab with your students' copies of Ivey et al 6e is included in the Preface of the book.

“The multicultural-feminist-social justice movement paradigm fully addresses a multicultural plus perspective.  Often typical of other texts is a lack of emphasis of this topic.  This multicultural plus perspective is an asset to this text. [...] Finally a textbook that emphasizes the new Positive Psychology movement!  The more I read this text, the more I like it.”

~ Meredyth G. Fellows, West ChesterUniversity of Pennsylvania

 

“Finally, a textbook that centralizes multicultural-feminist-social justice movements and positive psychology (as well as constructivism and postmodernism) without tacking them on to the end!  A terrific book for a course in theories or in multicultural counseling.”

~ Sharon Horne, Ph.D., The University of Memphis

 

“I strive to make multiculturalism a central theme in all of my classes, yet I often feel like I’m floundering and lacking in support. Within this textbook, I feel like I have the support I need to give these issues the attention they deserve.”

~ Dr. Lisa Cromer, University of Northern Colorado

 

“It brings a fresh perspective (postmodern, multiple perspectives, multicultural intentionality — concepts not addressed in my text and other similar texts) to understanding theories of counseling and psychotherapy.”

~ Claire Sham Choy, California State University, Fresno

 

“The strength of the Ivey et al. text is that it integrates multicultural issues into each chapter and utilizes multicultural examples to explore different theories. This integration is coupled with the specific discussion of multicultural theory as a theory in and of itself. This multidimensional approach to multiculturalism champions the current thinking of our time which celebrates an integrative and infused perspective.”

~ Nicole Hill, Idaho State University
