This volume details the theory and process of integrating counseling with clients with communication disorders in speech-language pathology and audiology practice using an approach that involves interpreting client behaviors and understanding their problems from their perspective. The authors discuss myths of clinical practice and the reluctance of practitioners to engage in counseling, levels of counseling intervention, how therapy can be seen as adaptive leadership rather than service, the theoretical foundations of counseling, and using the constructivist-narrative approach. They outline key aspects of the approach, such as listening, asking questions, using externalizing language, identifying innovative moments, experimenting, and using outside witnesses, with cases for illustration, and the rationale and procedures for various tools, such as drawing, stories, autobiography, self-characterization, chair work, play therapy, and mindfulness, and the types of clients or situations they should be used for, the materials needed, case examples, and frequently asked questions. They end with a chapter on how to teach the constructivist counseling framework. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
