Counseling Skills Training An Extensive Review Of Literature, Sarah Kay Smith
Graduate Theses
Counseling Skills Training is a broad topic and although the proper training of counselors is considered to be consequential, relatively little systematic research of a profound nature has been carried out using graduate level trainees or professional level counselors.
