Are you interested in a career in counseling? Do you want to gain a deeper understanding of the foundations of professional identity in the counseling field? If so, then “Counseling Today: Foundations of Professional Identity” is the book for you. Written by Darcy Granello and Mark Young, this book provides meaningful learning aids and real-life scenarios to help students learn how to become reflective practitioners in the field of counseling.

Unlike other textbooks that simply provide an overview of professional practice competencies, “Counseling Today” actively engages students using relatable, real-life scenarios and effective pedagogical aids designed for the way they learn best. As students read through the book, they are introduced to current research, controversial topics, and authentic counseling stories. They are then challenged to think critically and reflect on what they learn, ultimately helping them develop the necessary skills to shape their professional identities.

A unique feature of this book is the inclusion of first-person accounts from professionals in the counseling field. These accounts give readers true insight into the way that counseling is practiced today and provide valuable perspectives from professionals who have firsthand experience in the field. Additionally, the second edition of “Counseling Today” includes new social justice themes, over 300 updated reference citations, and aligns with the latest CACREP standards.

One of the strengths of “Counseling Today” is its focus on real-world application. The book presents students with authentic counseling scenarios, challenging them to think about the ethical implications and decision-making processes involved in counseling. By providing these real-life examples, the authors help students understand how to apply the concepts they learn in the book to their future counseling practice.

Another valuable aspect of “Counseling Today” is its examination of controversial topics in the counseling field. The book encourages students to think critically about these topics and engage in thoughtful discussions. By exploring different perspectives, students are better prepared to navigate the complexities of the counseling profession.

The authors also make effective use of pedagogical aids throughout the book. Each chapter begins with a set of learning objectives, allowing students to understand what they will learn and what is expected of them. The chapters also include key terms and concepts, summaries, review questions, and case studies to help reinforce learning. These aids ensure that students have a comprehensive understanding of the material and are able to apply it in their future counseling practice.

If you are considering a career in counseling or are currently studying counseling, “Counseling Today: Foundations of Professional Identity” is a valuable resource. Its engaging content, real-life scenarios, and thoughtful approach to professional identity development make it an essential read for anyone in the field.
