This is another useful text in the Practice series. It provides an overview of key aspects for consideration in counselling this client group, as well as how differing modalities could be applied to working with young people.
I found the structure of each chapter to allow a clear progression in initial reading, as well as making it easy to re-locate areas in subsequent review and revision. The authors acknowledge the challenges of this client group as well as the potential rewards.
This is definitely worth having on a reading list for Practice.
This text offers an excellent introduction to a range of approaches for working with young people. Although an introductory text, recommended further reading is particularly helpful for those who wish to explore further.

This is now in our library. Our course in youth work (which is not counselling) draws on a variety of professions and skills. I liked the first chapter that gives - in addition to other books - an understanding of adolescent development; and some goos outlines of approaches used TA, CBT and particularly SFT are of interest - Youth workers are often pragmatic and look fro wasy to help young poeple move forward. the SFT will be halpful here. There are some good case studies to enble further reflection and discussion.
Essential to those working within the caring professions in understanding how to respond to young people.
