The Counseling Workbook
This fully reproducible handbook is chock-full of strategies designed to help children handle such challenges as parental divorce, living in a blended family, loss and grieving, food-related issues, coping with depression, having ADD/LD, and being gifted.
For each key idea, there is a story, narrated in a child's voice, to illustrate the issue. There are questions to focus discussion and an activity designed to help children adapt and cope. Additional references are also provided.
I work with children one in an orphanage with 35 girls ranging in ages from 6 to 18 and the other in a counselling group where I work with not just children but with distressed adults as well. I would love to read this book but I guess it will not be available in my part of the world.
