Nine major counselling theories are applied to a central hypothetical client, Ruth, in this casebook, demonstrating how the approaches are used by practising clinicians. Therapists-in-training are given an opportunity to see the different therapeutic techniques (psychoanalytic, Adlerian, existential, person-centered, Gestalt, family systems, behaviour, cognitive-behaviour, and reality therapy) applied to a single individual. Each of the nine theory chapters includes two cases (Ruth and one other), and commentary from the author and at least one other expert.
