Reviews for Ethics for Psychotherapists and Counselors: A Proactive Approach
"So how can ethics educators overcome this defensive and rule-oriented culture? Sharon Anderson and Mitchell Handelsman offer an excellent solution for students in undergraduate or beginning master's level graduate programs...Perhaps the most striking thing about this book is the way that Anderson and Handelsman manage to make the process of ethical acculturation, even the very process of learning to understand and internalize mental health ethics, fun.... The authors clearly understand the need to foster an active learning process that includes self-awareness, self-reflection, discovery, and application. Thus, this book goes far beyond the provision of didactic material-something all too rare in ethics texts. It is clear that Anderson and Handelsman are accomplished teachers in that their writing style is lighthearted, good-humored, engaging, and, most important, deeply empathic." (American Journal of Psychology, 1 March 2011) "This is an excellent text, appropriate for graduate students, young psychologists, and even those of us who are 'seasoned veterans' in the practice of psychology. I highly recommend the text and congratulate the authors for writing this excellent book." (Independent Practitioner, Fall 2010) "It is useful in stressing those aspects of immersion into the ethics affective side of one's professional development that is not always present in more didactic texts." (PsycCRITIQUES, May 2010)
