Electric approach
try any and all methods that turn them on which often do more harm than good
Syncretism
a sloppy, systematic process of putting unrelated clinical concepts together. It is encouraged when graduate students are urged to formulate their own theories of counseling without first having experienced how tested models work
Traditional eclectic practice

Theoretical integrationaism
need to master at least 2 theories before trying to make any combinations

This model is developmentally based and has been empirically derived over time. It is “an alternative to technical eclectic approaches that tend to be inclusive to the point that various components are ‘poorly’ held together”
Macroscopic approach
involving a broad and comprehensive theoretical framework
Personal adaptation
Involving an increase in critical, logical, accurate, and scientific-like thinking
