Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A guide to innovative mental health education is urgently needed. Despite the hundreds of programs in existence for training students in counseling, human service, social work, and psychology, teachers in such programs have relied on an informal network of information exchange to guide their teaching practice. Yet, constructivist and developmental theories now point to sound, innovative practices for teaching. This volume delineates those practices. Despite years of research on effective adult education, university teaching fails, in practice, to incorporate research-supported teaching principles. Current university instruction is still dominated by the teacher-as-authority. The teacher downloads information from the front of the class and expects students to regurgitate it in papers and on exams. The authors offer a different vision of classrooms that are characterized by the themes of meaning-making, collaboration, equality, and activity in the learning environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the beginning of the biblical counseling movement in 1970, biblical counselors have argued that counseling is a ministry of the Word, just like preaching or missions. As a ministry, counseling must be defined according to sound biblical theology rather than secular principles of psychology. For over four decades, biblical theology has been at the core of the biblical counseling movement. Leaders in biblical counseling have emphasized a commitment to teaching doctrine in their counseling courses out of the conviction that good theology leads to good counseling…and bad theology leads to bad counseling. A Theology of Biblical Counseling is a landmark new book that covers the history of the biblical counseling movement, the core convictions that underlie sound counseling, and practical wisdom for counseling today. Dr. Heath Lambert shows how biblical counseling is rooted in the Scriptures while illustrating the real challenges counselors face today through true stories from the counseling room. A substantive textbook written in accessible language, it is an ideal resource for use in training biblical counselors at colleges, seminaries, and training institutes. In each chapter, doctrine comes to life in real ministry to real people, dramatically demonstrating how theology intersects with the lives of actual counselees.

Book excerpt: This guide for teachers begins by acknowledging that, in addition to their teaching duties and responsibilities as classroom managers, teachers are called upon to do a variety of things for which they may feel unprepared, including: (1) respond to children's emotional needs; (2) resolve interpersonal conflicts; (3) conduct parent conferences; (4) identify cases of abuse, neglect, drug abuse, and emotional problems; (5) assess children's developmental transitions; (6) participate in Individualized Education Programs; and (7) function as a problem solver for children in crisis. This book introduces beginning teachers to the basic methodology of counseling and consulting so that they will feel better prepared to handle these tasks. Chapter 1 looks at the roles of the classroom teacher. Chapter 2 focuses on the assessment of children's problems, including anxiety, phobias, depression, suicidal intentions, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and substance abuse. Chapter 3 explains the helping process, lists counseling principles, and provides an integrative approach to counseling. Chapter 4 offers suggestions for developing helping skills. Chapter 5 presents helping strategies to use in groups. Chapter 6 makes suggestions for parent conferences. Chapter 7 focuses on successful consulting with other professionals. At the end of each chapter are lists of suggested readings and activities. (NB)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Clinical Practice of Educational Therapy is the first book to provide a comprehensive review of the interdisciplinary profession and practice of educational therapy as it exists today. It describes the scope and practice of educational therapy from its European roots to its growing presence in the United States, and provides case studies to illustrate the work of educational therapists. Key Features: Interdisciplinary Perspective – Other books focus on either educational or therapeutic interventions but rarely discuss the blend and synergy of disciplines that are the hallmark of the profession. Illustrative Cases – The text draws heavily on case studies as a means of understanding the practice of educational therapy, especially the relationship between therapist and client. Expertise – Chapter authors are either experienced educational therapists or allied professionals who have made scholarly contributions to the profession, such as Dorothy Ungerleider, Patricia Waters, Roslyn Arnold, and George McCloskey. In addition to educational therapy students and practitioners, this book is appropriate for those working in related fields including special education, school psychology, school counseling, and social work in educational settings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a gap between the enormous need for counseling services and research about the counseling needs of gifted individuals, on the one hand, and the limited availability of such services and knowledge on the other. This book is designed to give counselors, classroom teachers, gifted education specialists, and parents an understanding of the academic and social-personal needs of gifted and talented students, awareness of ways that they themselves may help these children, and an introduction to the available guidance strategies and materials. This book highlights the role of regular classroom teachers and teachers of the gifted in counseling; provides teachers, counselors, and parents with information about the wide variety of approaches to enrichment and/or acceleration; emphasizes the major role of parents in the development of their gifted children; stresses career education and guidance. Four chapters are devoted to important topics that have received very little attention to date-gifted girls, preschool gifted, disadvantaged gifted, and learning-disabled gifted. Finally, a unique feature of the book is a chapter in which fictional portraits of gifted and creative children are presented and analyzed.
