About Counseling and Therapy in Video: Volume II

Counseling and Therapy in Video: Volume II both updates and expands upon the first collection, with special emphasis on contemporary topics such as family therapy, child therapy, geriatric therapy, play therapy, weight control and eating disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, sex therapy, culturally sensitive therapy, and cognitive-behavioral therapy.

This collection features world-renowned therapists such as Albert Ellis, Phil Zimbardo, Allen Ivey, John Norcross, Arnold Lazarus, Otto Kernberg, Violet Oaklander, and many others, demonstrating their methods in true-to-life situations. Spanning dozens of therapeutic methods, diagnoses, and cultural groups, this collection is essential for anyone involved in studying, teaching, or practicing in the helping professions.

Volume II is designed to work as a standalone resource or as a seamlessly integrated component of the original Counseling and Therapy in Video collection. Taken together, the two editions provide more than 700 hours of video accessible through a cross-searchable interface.

Value

Like all of the collections in the Critical Video Editions series, Counseling and Therapy in Video: Volume II represents an enormous value. Now libraries of every size and budget can offer hundreds of video titles at a fraction of what it would cost to buy all the physical videos individually—without worrying about permissions or copyright infringement. All educational uses, including in-class and remote-access viewing, are permitted.

Teaching Power

  • Perhaps the greatest source of anxiety for students—and even seasoned professionals in the mental health field—is the prospect of dealing with clients in the face-to-face counseling encounter. Video lets users observe the intricacies of behavior, tone, facial expression, and body language that define successful counseling experiences.
  • Unlike physical DVDs and VHS tapes, this online collection of streaming video makes it easy to queue up video for in-class or assigned watching. Personalized playlists you can annotate and share—each with a permanent URL—let you integrate video into the syllabus seamlessly and effortlessly. You can even link from playlists to any other content on the Web.
  • Synchronized, searchable transcripts run alongside each video enhancing navigation and access. Click ahead in the transcript, and the video jumps to that point. Scan hours of video in seconds.
