Strengthening Teenagers

Effective factors in counselling and therapy. With e-book inside.

• "That actually works quite well!"
• Transdiagnostic approach
• With case studies from counselling and therapy


Teenagers who go into counselling are often closed or not very cooperative. And this should come as no surprise seeing that the people around them focus mostly on their inadequacies and problems. In this book, the authors introduce the basics and practical aspects of resilience- and resource-oriented counselling and therapy.

This book illustrates topics for discussion and framework conditions. In this way, therapists can learn how to put the teenagers’ potentials and strengths at the focus of the therapeutic work and to make practical use of the creative solutions they find, irrespective of any specific problems.


Target group:
Psychotherapists for children and young adults, family therapists, family psychologists, staff in parent counselling centres
