Applying Career Development Theory to Counseling

This book seeks to provide several different benefits. First, Dr. Sharf seeks to explain the history of career counseling and the differences/similarities with clinical mental health counseling. Second, Sharf breaks down different career theories by chapter, which is extremely helpful for understanding differences in theory and what is applicable for specific career issues. Finally, Sharf seeks to show how to best integrate different career theories for advanced effectiveness. This is probably the best aspect of this book as the charts and research base shows how specific theories are more effective than others. This is an excellent book for any career counseling and development class or anyone seeking to work with people with career issues.

This book is a good read and is helpful for anyone wanting to learn more about career counseling.

This book is great in content. This branch of the counseling profession has lots of opportunities to help individuals. Definitely this book is not appreciated for people who do not understand how career counseling can definitely change the life of an individual. Don't get scared with the content and apply it to yourself! Personal growth warranted!

I learned a lot from this text...like the trait and factor theory, Super's model, and so on. It was not so easy to read but it contained the necessary components for Career Counseling.

Great book, it’s just ripped. But it’s a rental .. don’t really care about the cover . Just the information inside :)

This book does a great job of explaining the theories most important to career counseling. Would recommend this to any career counseling master's student.
