Summary
"Working with Anger and Young People explores the many meanings and roots of anger, including the other feelings and dilemmas that anger sometimes disguises and protects young people from facing. Nick Luxmoore warns against 'quick fix' solutions in dealing with anger, and draws on his extensive experience of youth counselling and training workshops to propose helpful interventions for addressing anger effectively. A wealth of case examples illustrate tried-and-tested techniques and creative approaches for working with anger rather than against it. While the focus is on effective work with young people, the book begins and ends with a crucial but often overlooked subject - the anger of professionals themselves."--Jacket.
