Sinopsis

`I like the interactive style in which the book is written, whereby the reader is invited to consider how they might deal with a situation... following which the authors explain how they approach it.... The book is for counsellors in training and a resource for practising counsellors. The methods described can be adapted to different settings, for example school and home.... I would recommend this comprehensive and stimulating book to anyone who is interested or involved in working in a therapeutic way with children′ - Counselling, The Journal of the British Association for Counselling

This introductory guide to the practice of counselling children, and to the practical issues of communicating with children in a counselling context, has been designed specifically for practitioners and students who are engaged in or wish to engage in counselling with emotionally disturbed children.

The authors: detail specific counselling skills for use with children, illustrating their discussions with case examples; provide detailed guidance on how to select and use a range of media, activities and play when counselling children; include worksheets for use in specific areas such as self-esteem and protective behaviours; and describe a new model of the internal processes of change in a child during therapy.
