This book provides an introduction to gerontological counseling, covering theories of aging )including a theory of gerontological counseling( and their practical application in counseling work with older adults; basic counseling skills and the counseling process in the context of work with older adults; contextual factors )race-ethnicity, social class, etc.(; and a discussion of social justice issues. Also considered are biopsychosocial-spiritual contexts of older adults, as well as the counseling skills and process interventions that maximize counseling success within these contexts."--Provided by publisher.
