Biography
Raymond Fox, PhD, LCSW, is a Professor in the Graduate School of Social Service at Fordham University, USA. He also maintains a private practice as a certified individual, marital, family, sex, and group psychotherapist.
"Once again, Ray Fox provides an excellent text for students and clinicians who desire practical guidelines, systematic direction, and creative suggestions for working with clients in therapy. Acknowledging the centrality of relationship, reflection, and practice wisdom in providing therapy that is humane and less technocratic, Dr. Fox provides useful case examples to explicate the concepts that are presented." - Carolyn Bradley, PhD, LCSW, Associate Professor of Social Work, Monmouth University
"Raymond Fox has an exceptional ability to create connection with his readers. In this latest edition of Elements of the Helping Process, he demonstrates once again the capacity to integrate the diverse aspects of helping into a coherent, integrated, and accessible whole. This book should be a part of every practitioner's library, a source to go back to again and again." - Clay Graybeal, PhD, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs, Westbrook College of Health Professions, University of New England
