Recipient of the ACES Beech Award! Grounded in Adlerian Psychology, the methods presented by Don Dinkmeyer, Jr. and Jon Carlson in Consultation are based upon the assumption that problems in the home and the classroom result not only from the direct actions of disruptive students, but also from the expectations of teachers and parents. This text shows how counselors can encourage change in these supposed 'problem' children by helping authority figures recognize and alter the part they may be playing in exacerbating the negative actions of the student. Also included is a supplementary DVD depicting actual individual and group interviews with teachers and parents.

Parents know the challenges of raising teenagers. This popular STEP (Systematic Training for Effective Parenting) guide is filled with easy-to-understand-and-apply skills that helps parents connect with teens and deal with their "issues." From the STEP/teen program, with practical guidance on social pressure, dating, grades, career plans, and alcohol, tobacco, and drug abuse prevention. This handbook is an excellent choice for parents who want to improve their relationship with teens. The authors believe that the rewards of parenting teenagers can far outweigh the challenges. With skills and understanding, you can guide your teen to be responsible, cooperative and independent. In doing this, you build a strong, positive relationship with your teenager. Even parents facing serious problems with teens can find more effective ways to get along with and help their teenager. In this handbook, you will learn how to:
<ul>
<li>Identify the goals of teen misbehavior and how to respond</li>
<li>Communicate respect and encouragement</li>
<li>Encourage cooperation and solve problems</li>
<li>Use consequences to build responsibility</li>
<li>How to decide what to do</li>
<li>Support for yourself as a parent and as a person</li>
</ul>
 Even though many parents believe that because teens are practically adults, parents cannot influence them or improve family relationships. Taking the reasonable steps presented in Parenting Teenagers is the beginning of building a positive relationship with your teen.

Mental Health

Providing the rationale and overview of consultation, this resource addresses the consultant's role and general processes with an emphasis on the critical need for establishing a working relationship with the consultee. It discusses an orientation to consultation which is grounded in individual psychology and addresses consultation with teachers, parents and families. The book also contains a quick refresher of Adlerian psychology. Offering a set of case studies demonstrating the theory and process of consultation, it enables school mental health professionals - counsellors, school psychologists and social workers - to use their skills effectively in an important role within schools.

Consultation: School Mental Health Professionals As Consultants

Consultation skills are at the heart of school mental health work, whether it be counseling, social work, or school psychology. This practical, how-to book and its accompanying video highlight the strategies and processes used in consultation and helps to bridge the gap between research and practice. New in the second edition is a chapter of case studies and illustrations which features real examples of student-teacher behaviors and consultation assessments. 
The video will feature a discussion about the consultation process and strategies that are used. Actual individual consultation interviews will follow. The interviews will highlight the strategies and processes used in consultation and the strategies and skills which are discussed in the book.
