- NEW COVERAGE EXAMINES A NEW DIAGNOSTIC CATEGORY, LANGUISHING, AS A RESULT OF THE PANDEMIC. Although languishing is not yet a formal diagnosis, students learn how it can lead to diagnosed depression when untreated.

New coverage in cutting-edge neuroscience demonstrates how counseling and psychotherapy change the brain, building new neural networks in both client and counselor through neural plasticity and neurogenesis. Students also study how neuroscience research stresses a positive wellness orientation to facilitate neural development along with positive mental health.
- ADDITIONAL FOCUS ON MULTICULTURALISM AND SOCIAL JUSTICE REVEALS HOW TO ENCOURAGE ADVOCACY AND ACTION FOR THE CLIENT AND THE COMMUNITY.
