This comprehensive book provides an integrated accounting of the contemporary status of each theory in counseling as it is practiced by internationally acclaimed experts. Each theory chapter covers the way mindfulness theory is clarified and the common factors model is accounted for; pertinent findings from the past decade of research on positive psychology; relevant elements of feminist therapy, multicultural therapy, and therapy with individuals for whom sexual orientation is a significant focus; and empirical evidence documenting the efficacy of the interventions advocated by the theory.
