About the Book

THE SOCIAL WORK SKILLS WORKBOOK is one of the few workbooks/textbooks for social work skills practice and cultivates the promotion of self-knowledge, self-efficacy, critical thinking, lifelong learning, cultural competence and professionalism. Although practice textbooks appropriately cover various theories, there is a strong experiential component to most courses, and even more so for the skills lab course. With its variety of self-assessments and exercises and traditional, expository content grounded in solid research, THE SOCIAL WORK SKILLS WORKBOOK can be used in three primary ways: (1) As a main text in social work skills labs; (2) as a resource for field or internship courses; and (3) as a supplement to social work methods/practice courses. A perforated, three-hole-punch format make the text convenient for use as a workbook

Key Feature

  • Students and professors alike enjoy Cournoyer's clear and engaging writing style. This book successfully merges textbook and workbook, presenting essential theory and content as well as practice labs in interpersonal skills and those skills most applicable to the processes of social work practice: preparing, beginning, exploring, assessing, contracting, working and evaluating, and ending.
  • Every chapter includes a description of each skill with an example and an exercise to give students practice in using the skill; summary exercises are featured at the end of each section to help students utilize several skills together as they would in real helping situations.
  • Exercises help students apply ethical and legal principles, interact with individuals, work with couples and families, and interact with other systems, such as referral sources and community resources.
  • Online support includes Microsoft PowerPoint slides, chapter quiz questions, InfoTrac College Edition and Web exercises, and a correlation chart that shows how to use this workbook with Compton, Galaway, and Cournoyer's SOCIAL WORK PROCESSES book, as well as with our other social work practice texts by Hepworth, Kirst-Ashman, and Zastrow.
