摘要

An extensive amount of research has underscored the benefits of developing higher levels of cognitive complexity and reflective practice among counseling professionals (Buser, 2008; Choate u26 Granello, 2006; Fong, Borders, Ethington, u26 Pitts, 1997; Granello, 2002; Pietrzak, Duncan u26 Korcuska, 2008). This exploratory study examined the degree to which evidence-based pedagogical methods promoting cognitive complexity and reflective practice exist within graduate level counseling classes.
