Counseling People with Communication Problems is a practical, accessible, step-by-step guide for those working with people who experience disorders of speech, language, voice, and fluency. The author, herself both a speech and language therapist and a counselor, emphasizes how counseling has come to play an increasing part in practitioners′ approaches to communication problems. She evaluates the forms of counseling that are currently practiced alongside direct treatment of the disorders themselves, and addresses issues of training and the responsibilities of counselors, asking for greater training opportunities and a wider provision of counseling in this field. Peggy Dalton′s work is a galvanizing force in the promotion of a deeper understanding of the limitations imposed by communication disorders; it also fosters continued commitment necessary to help those who must cope with such restrictions. Counselors and speech therapists alike will appreciate her straightforward yet sensitive handling of these complex problems.
