Why is it important?

This is a paper that delineates the psychological and systems theory approaches to counseling--it is a precursor to the development of the mental health service "paradigms" work that followed and is references in my books on the topic, most notable, Paradigms of Counseling and Psychotherapy, which is an ebook published by Smashwords.com.

Perspectives
