Download or read book What Young People Want from Mental Health Services written by Kerry Gibson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-27 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Young people experience one of the highest rates of mental health problems of any group, but make the least use of the support available to them. To reach young people in distress, we need to understand what this digital generation want from mental health professionals and services. Based on interviews with nearly 400 young people, this book offers a vision of youth mental health issues and services through the eyes of young people themselves. It offers professionals important insights into the meaning of identity and agency for this generation and explores how these issues play out in young people’s expectations of mental health support. It shows how, despite young people’s immersion in digital technology, genuine and trusting relationships remain a key ingredient in their priorities for support. It considers what access to mental health support means for a generation who have grown up with the immediacy enabled by digital technology. Young people’s accounts also provide crucial insights into how they are using digital resources to manage their own mental health – in ways often not appreciated by professionals who design internet interventions. What Young People Want From Mental Health Services offers clear guidance to counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists, youth workers, social workers, service providers and policymakers about how to work with youth and design their services so they are a better match for young people today. It contributes to a growing movement calling for a ‘Youth Informed Approach’ to mental health to address the needs of young people.

Download or read book Counselling Adolescents written by Kathryn Geldard and published by SAGE. This book was released on 2004-06-30 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `The book does provide an excellent resource offering a holistic and flexible approach and a variety of techniques. These provide a useful toolkit of practitioners working closely with young people. However its core readership is counsellors with young people. Though there are now many different kinds of counselling leading to qualification (and careful selection is necessary), there are few that are particularly oriented towards counselling young people. Counselling Adolescents goes a good way towards filling that gap. It will be an effective support to the professional counselor working with young people. In fact many wonder how they functioned without it!′ - Youth & Policy `This book is a useful text for professionals with knowledge of counselling skills, and the ideas are well presented. The book gave me the opportunity to question my counselling skills, especially with regard to adolescents, and in so doing identify areas for progression and further training′ - Emotional & Behavioural Difficulties Counselling Adolescents, Second Edition includes two new important chapters. The first discusses how counsellors can make use of adolescent communication processes. Counsellors who understand these processes are better equipped to connect with young clients. The second new chapter explores the way in which the psychotherapeutic process can promote change in adolescents. The authors suggest that to be an effective counsellor of young people, these processes need to be fully understood. The book closes with practical case studies to show how counsellors can work pro-actively with adolescents. This book will be invaluable to those working with emotionally distressed adolescents, and will provide an excellent resource for students and professionals working in a range of helping professions. When it comes to working with adolescents in a therapeutic setting, counsellors are divided. Some work exclusively with adolescents in a successful and fulfilling way, however, others find it difficult to work with them. In this new edition of Counselling Adolescents, Kathryn and David Geldard provide a practical introduction to the principles and practices required for successful counselling, to show that working with adolescents can be both challenging and effective. The book is divided into three main parts, covering: - how to understand the adolescent as a person - the pro-active approach of working with adolescents - the counselling skills and strategies needed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Talk with any clinician about what they do, and you will likely hear a story-not about an amazing turn-around or a typical case--but probably about a difficult case, perhaps one in which the clinician questioned the outcome or did not feel very successful. Client failure is a real phenomenon. Unlike medical care where a physician assumes responsibility for treating, and often, curing an illness, addressing mental health concerns is not so cut and dry"--

This book was released on 2017-07-21 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are growing numbers of youth who identify as transgender, and as a result, clinicians and counselors are in need of an informed resource that covers the basics of gender identity and expression. This book responds to that need by setting out clear advice and support on working with transgender and non-binary youth with regard to their identity, mental health, personal and family life and their medical and social transition as well as offering additional resources and reading lists. Along with the basic information needed to understand transgender clients, Irwin Krieger applies this general knowledge to work with transgender teens at what can be the most critical and problematic stage in a trans person's life. Specifically, issues of gender identity awareness and expression for youth along with the mental and physical challenges that puberty presents are discussed.
