Description

  • Practical organization into three main sections lets students as well as teachers benefit from a natural learning progression from the history and context of wellness to its theories to its working applications in the real world.
  • A foundation of science and research allows students to see the connection between research, theory, and practice.
  • A balanced approach to the field of wellness encourages students to explore all aspects of study, including the social, physical, emotional, cognitive, and psychological facets of the topic.

Dr. Paul F. Granello is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor and Associate Professor of Counselor Education at The Ohio State University, where he teaches a popular course on wellness counseling. He is a founder and Chief Science Officer of the Ohio Suicide Prevention Foundation and has co-authored a book with Dr. Darcy Haag Granello called, Suicide: An Essential Guide for Helping Professionals & Educators (Allyn & Bacon, 2007). Granello has published numerous articles national journals, authored 10 book chapters on suicide, anxiety, computers in counseling, and presented at conferences on topics related to suicide, psychotherapy outcomes, and wellness. 

Developed by a professor who has been teaching a popular and innovative wellness counseling course for over a decade, this new text is organized into a format specifically designed to meet the needs of both counselor education graduate students and their teachers — making both teaching and learning the material easier and more intuitive.

 

Giving a general but comprehensive overview of the subject of wellness, Wellness Counseling offers students a compelling balance of the science and research in the field, the theories that have emerged from this research, and the practical applications that we can take away from practicing these theories. Holistic, scientific, and ultimately concerned with the humanity of counseling, this text strives to be inclusive — especially of the psychological and social aspects of wellness that have gained more attention in recent years.

 

The book is organized in three main sections. While Section One is concerned with the background of wellness as a healthcare paradigm in the United States and major theories of wellness, and historical context for wellness, Section Two contains specific information on the social, physical, emotional, and cognitive domains of wellness.  The last main section of the book synthesizes the first two sections of the book to extract practical applications of wellness in behavioral healthcare intervention counseling.
