Book Description

0415933676 978-0415933674 April 1, 2002 2

In the third edition of Howard Rosenthal’s best-selling test preparation guide for the National Counselor Examination (NCE), students get more help than ever with an expanded section on marriage and family counseling, new material on web counseling, and updated material throughout. This resource now includes over 1,050 tutorial questions/answers and a new "Final Review and Last Minute Super Review Boot Camp" section. This guide is an ideal review tool for state licensing, the NCC credential, and preparation for written and oral boards. And because the new Counselor Preparation Comprehensive Examination (CPCE), draws from the same subject areas, the Encyclopedia is a perfect study guide for the CPCE as well. Written in a unique question/answer format, with a quick reference index, this is also an essential student reference volume for use in any counseling, social work, or human services course.

More About the Author

I love to write books and produce audio programs and I think you'll love reading or listening to them. My style has been dubbed as "reader friendly" meaning you'll feel like we're sitting down for lunch having a conversation with each other. Or as my college students put it: "We know your books aren't ghost written Dr. Rosenthal. They are lively, humorous, and sound just like you in class."

I don't believe that education needs to be dry, dull, or boring and my materials go on to prove it. I receive e-mails also daily from counselors thanking me for helping them to secure the credentials they need to practice their craft. It's the greatest feeling in the world.

Several of my works allow you to step into the offices of the finest therapists in the world as they reveal the intricacies of their favorite counseling and therapy techniques, strategies, or homework assignments.

You can use my materials to help others by helping yourself. It's really that simple!

Have a great day.

Dr. Howard Rosenthal

5.0 out of 5 stars The best tool available for NCE examination, November 25, 2005
This review is from: Encyclopedia of Counseling: Master Review and Tutorial for the National Counselor Examination and State Exams (Paperback)
I was in a study group with a VP of our organization who had been a therapist for years, but was only then, (1995) seeking licensure. He purchased approx 1500.00 worth of study aids to help him pass the exam since he had been out of school for so long.(20 years)
The Rosenthal book (he also had tapes, don't know if he still does) were the cheapest and best study aid for this exam.
Many of the questions were right off the exam, but even those that weren't helped us with the format of the test questions and the type of material on the test.
None of the four in our group got less than an 83% on the test and two of our group were in the low to mid 90's.
Rosenthal's book is an excellent resource and one you will not regret getting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Encyclopedia of Counseling: Master Review and tutorial for the National Counselor Examination and State Exams, October 9, 2005
This review is from: Encyclopedia of Counseling: Master Review and Tutorial for the National Counselor Examination and State Exams (Paperback)
While I am still two weeks away from taking the test, I purchased the online program @ $235 and borrowed an old copy of the $250 NCE Study Guides. After comparing several sections, it appears this $50 book is more valuable than the others. One of my professors used it, and blew the test away. The head of our department states that you WON'T know all of the material anyway. Your best bet is to practice answering these types of questions. By the time you go through this book twice, major points are driven home. I plan to spend my last two weeks with this source only.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great review for exams!, March 6, 2005
This review is from: Encyclopedia of Counseling: Master Review and Tutorial for the National Counselor Examination and State Exams (Paperback)
I passed my NCE and TX LPC easily after using primarily this book and studying the DSM IV TR. It's easy to read, and explains not only why the answers are correct, but also why all the others are wrong. It's not meant to teach you from scratch, but it's a great review, and if you find there is something unfamiliar, it gives you an idea of the areas to grow and study more in.
