Why "competency-based" counseling? -- Assuming a competency-based stance -- A map for competency-based counseling : part I : getting oriented -- A map for competency-based counseling : part II : getting on the (short) road to change -- Two case examples of competency-based counseling -- Resource focus : it's not just for counseling anymore! -- A cautionary note to go slowly.
This book demonstrates how counselors can help people to use the resources they already have so they can address issues that come up in life. The authors show that most people have within themselves the strengths and resources to confront the issues positively that trouble their lives. The counseling method elicits resiliency, assets, and successful experiences from the client's past to foster positive change in the present. Case studies are included, drawn especially from marriage and family counseling.
