This was required reading for Counseling Skills and I have to admit it is pretty easy to read. The microskills are useful and we put them into action in the class. There are lots of exercises to do but we haven’t really used them in class. I’m not sure that I would use them on my own either with out provocation.
All in all a helpful book but the companion cd was pretty much a dud.

I got this book as part of my counseling masters course (MFT) and I must say IT IS THE BOOK for therapist, business people or ANYONE who wants to improve how they communicate with others. My husband sometimes refers to it when he comes by friends who need help in the peoples skills (shy types). Even the most experienced communicator can learn new things! I was AMAZED by the examples, conceptualizations and just the wealth of information.

This book should be required reading for everyone, regardless of field or relationship status. If you encounter a friend, relative, or stranger with something on their mind, this book shows you the steps you can take to help that person find the solutions to their own problems, a skill we all have within us. I use the skills in this book as a psychology student, a parent, and someone in long-term relationships with family, friends, and loved ones. If you can’t afford the new copy, find an old one. This book will improve how you connect with others tremendously!
