About Springer Publishing Company, Incorporated
Springer Publishing Company (NYC) publishes nursing, counseling, social work, and health-professions reference books — including the 101/301 Careers series, Springer Series on Behavioral Addictions, and clinical advanced-practice references. Distinct from Springer Nature (scientific journals), Springer Publishing's titles dominate MSN/DNP and CACREP-accredited counseling program reading lists. We source directly from Springer's US warehouse.
How students use this book
NCE, CPCE, and state counseling licensure exams test across nine content areas — human growth, social/cultural, helping relationships, group work, career, assessment, research, and professional orientation. This title works best inside a multi-resource prep plan: a content review like Rosenthal's, a Q-bank, and audio review for commute time. Most successful candidates dedicate 8-12 weeks of focused review across all nine domains.
