Reviews

The book is aimed at those working with eight-to-twelve-year-olds and it uses a group approach which is practitioner friendly. More specifically, the authors are writing for psychologists, counsellors, and other professionals working in schools or school-like settings...The reader is given clear guidance on screening and identification techniques in a step by step method, supplemented with reproducible forms and suggested practitioner scripts. - SEN Magazine I have used the Anger Coping Program for many years and have trained hundreds of school psychologists and school counselors in its use. This highly effective program is now even more valuable with the addition of chapters specifically addressing considerations when treating girls and implementation with individuals. Another new chapter shows how the program is a perfect tool to use within an RTI framework. - Judith A. McBride, consultant, Long Beach Unified School District, California This is a comprehensive resource for school psychologists, counselors, and others who are working with aggressive and behaviorally challenging students. Practitioners get everything needed to implement the authors' approach, including appropriate background research. The Anger Coping Program provides essential positive behavior support to students who need it - and it gives school personnel valuable tools for dealing with some of the most difficult challenges they face. - Beth Herman-Ukasick, school psychologist, Violence Prevention Program, Milwaukee Public Schools, USA On the Previous Edition: The book covers everything a school practitioner needs to consider when offering an anger management program. - Virginia Child Protection Newsletter
