The Emotional Growth of Teens

This book is designed as a nuts and bolts guide for school counselors. Fibkins highlights for secondary school counselors the "hows" and "whys" for using group counseling intervention to help the increasing numbers of troubled teenagers. Group counseling intervention is ideally suited to reach many more students than one-on-one counseling, and it offers busy counselors a positive way to maximize their outreach services. This book contains specific steps in developing a successful group program that comes to the aid of troubled teens and, in the process, helps create a school environment where students can learn, teachers can teach, administrators can lead, and parents can learn how to better help their children.
