Description

In the third edition of Howard Rosenthal’s best-selling test preparation guide for the National Counselor Examination (NCE), students get more help than ever with an expanded section on marriage and family counseling, new material on web counseling, and updated material throughout. This resource now includes over 1,050 tutorial questions/answers and a new "Final Review and Last Minute Super Review Boot Camp" section. This guide is an ideal review tool for state licensing, the NCC credential, and preparation for written and oral boards. And because the new Counselor Preparation Comprehensive Examination (CPCE), draws from the same subject areas, the Encyclopedia is a perfect study guide for the CPCE as well. Written in a unique question/answer format, with a quick reference index, this is also an essential student reference volume for use in any counseling, social work, or human services course.

Reviews

"This newly revised version of the Encyclopedia of Counseling will serve as an excellent foundation for counselors and other mental health professionals who are reviewing and updating their knowledge. The lively question and answer format serves as an effective way to prepare for the awesome task of passing the NCE and the CPCE exams.”

- Dorothy McGuffin, MS, LPC, NCC, 2000 and 2001 Chairperson of the Committee for Licensing Professional Counselors, State of Missouri

"Your products live up to the claims. I passed the NCE with a high score and felt very well prepared. The Encyclopedia is very well designed to enhance learning and retention."

-Kalpana Murthy, MBA, MS, NCC, LAPC

"I just want to say thank you. The Encyclopedia made all the difference for me. It was like having a 24 hour coach at my beck and call. On the morning of the exam I walked in confident and ready to pass. And I did. I passed the CPCE with flying colors!"

- Rhonda Adams, MA
