Adolescent Therapy that Really Works: Helping Kids Who Never Asked for Help in the First Place
by Janet Sasson EdgetteEdgette proposes a unique approach to relating to adolescents in therapy. Focusing on establishing genuine and unaffected relationships between therapists and teens, this book offers techniques for clinicians who want to engage and connect with their adolescent clients. The goal is to bring about conversations that are candid and therapeutically effective so that teens and their families can find dignified and durable solutions to their problems. Case examples and stories from Edgette’s own practice illustrate how therapists can successfully navigate difficult encounters, avert power struggles, and avoid dead-end dialogues that bore teenage clients and stall treatment. Thorough and lucidly written, Adolescent Therapy That Really Works shows therapist how to become partners with their clients, maintain their authority while also drawing teens into comfortable conversation, and read body language and facial expressions to better convey understanding and respect. Every therapist who works with adolescents and their families will benefit from the wisdom, skill, and honesty exhibited in Edgette’s therapeutic approach.

Adolescentes: Y sus Cosas (Como... #45)
by Owen JonesAdolescentes Y sus Cosas Los niños frecuentemente copian lo que ven. Son buenos aprendices y están programados para ser exactamente eso. Una vez que pueden caminar tienen unos diez años para aprender tanto como puedan antes de que se les de mucha libertad para caminar solos en el mundo. Esto difiere de país en país y de siglo en siglo, pero el principio es el mismo. Aunque la mayoría de los niños son duramente supervisados durante esos diez años, muchos niños pasan algo de tiempo solos o únicamente en compañía de otros niños. Esto significa que es una gran idea enseñar a los niños algunos datos de emergencia. En días tempranos, el entrenamiento de Primeros Auxilios para niños puede ser tan fácil como enseñarles el número de emergencias por si se ven involucrados en algún problema. Treinta años atrás mientras estaba viviendo en los Países Bajos, presencié un intento de suicidio por sobredosis. Mi amigo le estaba haciendo PCR y me pidió que fuera a la casilla telefónica y llamará una ambulancia. Fui, pero para cuando llegué ahí, 999 (el número del Reino Unido para emergencia no hacía nada). Miré alrededor en la casilla, pero no pude ver un número de emergencia y aunque mi holandés era fluido. Tuve que salir y parar a un transeúnte para preguntarle. Perdí algunos minutos y el murió. Antes de que un niño vaya a la escuela a los cinco o seis años, los niños deben conocer principios como: el número de emergencia, no hablar con extraños, no subir al auto de ningún desconocido, que la sangre es peligrosa y debe ser tratada y que los huesos se rompen, a tener cuidado cuando corren. Cualquier cosa adicional será un bono. Tú también puedes crear un kit de Primeros Auxilios con tu hijo. Pueden sentarse, discutir el contenido práctico, personal de un kit de Primeros Auxilios y luego llevar a tu hijo a la farmacia para comprar lo necesario. De vuelta en casa, puede

Adolescents and Their Families: An Introduction to Assessment and Intervention
by Mark Worden Terry S TrepperThis comprehensive book introduces and integrates adolescent developmental themes and family system theory into a coherent assessment and intervention model. Author Mark Worden views the adolescent as active in shaping the family interactions as much as the family is influential in shaping the adolescent’s behavior. He takes a pragmatic approach to therapy, emphasizing what best explains the clinical phenomena and what works best for change. To this end, a heavy emphasis is placed on the process of evaluation and intervention of adolescents and their families with typical therapeutic dilemmas. This practical book is organized to take the reader through the first evaluation interview, through the planning of intervention strategies, and through the beginning, middle, and termination phases of treatment. Case examples bring Adolescents and Their Families to life, highlighting conceptual discussions. Topics discussed in this important book range from the integration of adolescent and family psychology, to the employment of a contextual-dialectic (“goodness-of-fit”) paradigm to evaluate adolescent-family interface, to matching the intervention with the family. A step-by-step discussion of the first interview and diverse intervention strategies are discussed, as are frequent clinical syndromes--acting-out, underachievement, eating disorders, divorce/single parenthood, depression, and suicide. Graduate students and clinicians will find this appealing book an ideal resource, as will experienced therapists beginning to work with adolescents and families. The book will also serve as an excellent primary or ancillary text for graduate courses in psychotherapy with adolescents and in family therapy courses. High school guidance counselors, social workers, and psychologists will also find many valuable applications in this timely book.

Adulting Life Skills for Young Adults: Tools to Navigate Through High School, College, and Into the World with Inner Knowledge and the Ability to Thrive
by Jaqui MeyerThe ultimate adulting guide for every teen and young adult – empower yourself with over 15 life skills today! Let’s face it, adulting is hard. While this might sound like a cliché, it does ring with truth. The moment your childhood years come to an end, you face a transitionary period of life – the teenage years – when you have to figure out where you fit. And in all this, you also need to struggle with the idea of living independently, preparing yourself for the life ahead. Figuring out your career, managing your finances, and making sense of your whole life – very likely on your own – this period of your life easily becomes a headache. Think for a moment… how would you rate your skills in managing time, money, and your emotions – all on your own? Or how about navigating through everyday problems and achieving a balanced life without family support? According to a survey by the Bank of America, many teens and young adults agree that adulthood truly begins when you can live independently, find a job, pay for your expenses, and stop relying on your family for financial support. Unfortunately, throughout your school life, you are never handed a map that can help you navigate the challenges of adult life with ease.
