Brief Counseling in Schools, Second Edition is a practical guide to providing help and support to young people experiencing a range of difficulties in their home and school lives. Recognizing the constraints of working within school settings, the book illustrates how counseling can nevertheless be effective, even when time is short and confidentiality is hard to preserve. Based on a method of brief integrative counseling that can be adapted to the range of problems which pupils bring to counseling, and illustrated with rich and varied case material, the chapters look at issues of: self-esteem; depression and suicidal thoughts; bullying; parental separation and step-parent conflict; loss and bereavement; spiritual concerns; smoking, drug, and alcohol use; and sexuality.
