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. 000347024 650_0 $$aOlder people$$xCounseling of. 000347024 650_0 $$aOlder people$$xPsychology. 000347024 650_0 $$aAging. 000347024 85200 $$bgen$$hHV1451$$i.B62$$i2011 000347024 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:347024$$pGLOBAL_SET 000347024 980__ $$aBIB 000347024 980__ $$aBOOK
