>COUNSELING KIDS WITH EMOTIONAL AND BEHAVIORAL PROBLEMS IN THE SCHOOLS

Mary N. Cook and Kathy Weldon

Counseling Kids With Emotional and Behavioral Problems in the Schools is a comprehensive text on counseling in a user-friendly format that makes it a joy for those who work with children with emotional and behavioral problems.

Cook and Weldon explore different emotional and behavioral problems and the children who exhibit them, including children who are depressed, unsafe, socially impaired, anxious, selectively mute, school-refusing, disruptive or ADHD, and difficult. The book also examines working with classes or groups, as well as crisis intervention from the counselor’s perspective.

Categorized by emotional or behavioral difficulty, each chapter dissects the epidemiology and major characteristics of the problem, assessment techniques, and interventions. The text relates countless scenarios, dialogues, and case studies and provides activities, games, and sample behavioral contracts to be used by counselors, teachers, and parents.

Special Features
