The sixth edition of the best-selling Counseling Children and Adolescents offers readers a comprehensive exploration of the practice of counselling young clients. The book introduces several theories that have proven effective with young clients, then couples that information with developmentally and culturally appropriate interventions and counselling techniques.

Additional chapters explore working with children who are historically disenfranchised and placed at-risk, children with exceptionalities, and youth affected by challenging circumstances. Other topics addressed in the text include working with parents and families in school and mental health settings, creative counselling techniques, basic counselling skills, and ethical considerations specific to children and adolescents.

This edition retains the features of previous editions prized by instructors and students alike but incorporates important updates. A new chapter on trauma has been added and references, examples, and case studies have been updated as appropriate to reflect the current times. The accompanying Cognella Active Learning for students includes 16 brand-new videos that help make concepts come alive.

This book features highly informative chapters and information based on rich experience of the authors. With an emphasis on practical applications and empirically based approaches, it is ideal for graduate-level courses in counselling, psychology, marriage and family, or social work, as well as for practitioners working with young clients.
