Practical Interventions for Young People

DESCRIPTION

'The book's rich, relevant and comprehensive contributions from experienced writers make it a substantial resource for teaching, reference and research' - Mark Prever, trainer, writer and supervisor. 'The needs and problems of young people are currently extremely topical and justify a dedicated textbook. The wide range of internationally renowned authors contributes to the strengths and diversity of this publication, enhancing its potential as a resource for students and professionals' - Jenny Pinfield, University of Worcester. This book responds to the urgent need for practical intervention approaches targeting young people at risk. It provides a much needed practical resource for practitioners and students from a variety of helping professions. Focussing on interventions that practitioners can use in collaboration with the young person, the book offers hands-on strategies for addressing challenges and issues typically faced by young people, such as: depression, suicide and self-harm; substance misuse; problematic sexual behaviour; marginalised youth; and, mental health issues.
