Reviews


Where to Start and What to Ask
The book was very informative with a great deal of information. It was easy to read and understand - very user friendly. The information was timely and well put together.

Older, but not outdated
I read this book as a beginning graduate student, and underlined, highlighted, and marked up many relevant passages. Now as a professor teaching graduate students in Counseling, my students find it every bit as useful as I did. They consistently rate this the most useful of all the books and readings they've done. As another reviewer noticed, you won't find theory. Just the practical, how-to nuts and bolts of how to do a mental status exam, describe a client's affect, what to say in your first meeting with a family, couple, child or adult, and how to keep youself safe when working with potentially violent clients. If you are starting out in clinical work, this book will be one you will reference often.
