I used this book for my Theory class in a CACREP program. Overall, it was a decent book packed with a lot of relevant information. However, the book was VERY dense. I think Sharf could have made the book much more concise by eliminating or consolidating some sections, particularly the last sections in every chapter (such as the "gender" and "multicultural" sections). Regardless, I will definitely use this as a reference when I'm studying for the NCE.

Using this as a text for a graduate level class. Text is well-organized and presents numerous theories of psychotherapy and counseling in a way that is interesting even to others who aren't studying psychology.

I was terrified to learn about theories in grad school as I didn't think I'd grasp the concepts easily. This book makes it so easy and I love reading about the theorists! Would definitely recommend.

Absolutely wonderful! Used it in my graduate program at Northwestern University.
