ISBN: 978-1-4129-9309-2. 477 pagesABSTRACTThis book provides a clear framework for developing a collaborative counselling approach with clients. Dr. Pare espouses an alternative view of counselling as a conversational practice that considers power, meaning, and social justice when working with rather than working on clients. He delivers tools for practitioners to mindfully step away from deficit-based views of clients toward client agency. This accessible text focuses on building a foundation of collaboration with clients, explores the practice of collaborative meaning making, and provides empowering practices for assessing client concerns and promoting change. Students and practitioners alike will appreciate this guiding compass for the complex counselling conversations that lie ahead.RESUMECet ouvrage fournit un cadre clair et coherent pour le developpement d'une approche collaborative avec les clients. Dr. Pare favorise une autre vue de counseling comme une pratique conversationnelle qui prend en compte le pouvoir, le sens, et la justice sociale en travaillant avec plutot que sur les clients. Il fournit des outils pour les praticiens qui, a la pleine conscience, aimeraient s'eloigner des vues axees sur le deficit du client vers l'habilitation du client.

Les etudiants et les praticiens apprecieront ce compas qui peut servir a orienter les conversations de counseling complexes qui surviennent.The Practice of Collaborative Counseling & Psychotherapy by David Pare is about developing a collaborative counselling approach with clients while forefronting power relations and cultural diversity.

In Chapter 1, attention to culture, meaning-making, power, collaborative dialogue, and mindfulness are but a few things that should guide intention. In Chapter 2, the author portrays therapy as conversation, closely examining the way including therapeutic talk, operates to construct meaning and shape experience.Section 2 builds a foundation for collaboration with clients.

With this premise, the author encourages us to always be with the emerging moment to focus on how conversation can guide us and how trust and rapport make helpful collaborations possible. Chapter 3 is succinctly captured by cant go there (a preferred future) until we are here (the present), as it's currently experienced.
