Advocacy, Ethics, and Essential Professional Foundations

A comprehensive overview of the major tenets of the counseling profession, precisely aligned with the 2016 CACREP standards. Current, innovative, and comprehensive, Orientation to the Counseling Profession: Advocacy, Ethics, and Essential Professional Foundations provides a wealth of information on the foundational and emerging issues of the counseling profession. Rather than approaching the field from a more generic "helping professions" perspective, it is specifically designed to orient counselors-in-training to the profession of counseling. It includes coverage of advocacy and multicultural counseling, licensure, professional associations, ethical/legal issues, crisis intervention, consultation, supervision, outcomes, research, and the counseling process with diverse applications across the life span, settings, and specialties. Written in keeping with new counselor preparation initiatives-which expose counselors-in-training to essential current and future practices-it prepares students for the future of the counseling practice. Precisely aligned with the 2016 CACREP standards, this text helps CACREP-accredited programs meet the CACREP standards, and it helps non-CACREP programs provide counselors-in-training with the most current professional training standards. The new edition features a new chapter on crisis intervention, discussion updates and applications of ACA and ASCA codes of ethics, coverage of internet or distance counseling practices, an increased focus on wellness practices within the counseling profession, and employs advocacy counseling, social justice, and technology issues as foundational constructs.

A Novel

Is this new land a place where magics really happen? From Gregory Maguire, the acclaimed author of Wicked, comes his much-anticipated second novel, a brilliant and provocative retelling of the timeless Cinderella tale. In the lives of children, pumpkins can turn into coaches, mice and rats into human beings.... When we grow up, we learn that it's far more common for human beings to turn into rats.... We all have heard the story of Cinderella, the beautiful child cast out to slave among the ashes. But what of her stepsisters, the homely pair exiled into ignominy by the fame of their lovely sibling? What fate befell those untouched by beauty . . . and what curses accompanied Cinderella's exquisite looks? Extreme beauty is an affliction Set against the rich backdrop of seventeenth-century Holland, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister tells the story of Iris, an unlikely heroine who finds herself swept from the lowly streets of Haarlem to a strange world of wealth, artifice, and ambition. Iris's path quickly becomes intertwined with that of Clara, the mysterious and unnaturally beautiful girl destined to become her sister. Clara was the prettiest child, but was her life the prettiest tale? While Clara retreats to the cinders of the family hearth, burning all memories of her past, Iris seeks out the shadowy secrets of her new household--and the treacherous truth of her former life. God and Satan snarling at each other like dogs.... Imps and fairy godmotbers trying to undo each other's work. How we try to pin the world between opposite extremes! Far more than a mere fairy-tale, Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister is a novel of beauty and betrayal, illusion and understanding, reminding us that deception can be unearthed--and love unveiled--in the most unexpected of places.
