| Book Description | This handbook describes in detail different contemporary approaches to group work with children and adolescents. Further, this volume illustrates the application of these models to work with the youth of today, whether victims of trauma, adolescents struggling with LGBT issues, or youth with varying common diagnoses such as autism spectrum disorders, depression, and anxiety. It offers chapters presenting a variety of clinical approaches written by experts in these approaches, from classic (play therapy and dialectical behavior therapy) to cutting-edge (attachment-based intervention, mindfulness, and sensorimotor psychotherapy). Because of its broad scope, the book is suitable for a wide audience, from students to first-time group leaders to seasoned practitioners. |
| Editorial Review | Group therapy for children and young people is the modality with the greatest-as yet not fully exploited-potential. The influence of peers on the developing child, for better or worse, is immense. This excellent book can ensure that the power of social influence is harnessed for the best motives. A remarkable collection of the most creative minds in this area comprehensively covering an exciting clinical field. -Peter Fonagy, Freud Memorial professor of psychoanalysis, UCL; Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families, London, UK. |
