Basic Counselling Skills for Teachers provides teachers and school staff with an accessible guide, and easy-to-apply skills, to providing counselling to students in a school setting. It looks at what counselling is and what it is not, how to recognise that a student may need counselling, creating the right environment, and maintaining confidentiality.
Throughout the book, Tim Dansie provides case studies and strategies for teachers that will help them to encourage students to open up and talk whilst having a model to follow outlining a Solution-Focused Counselling approach. It includes easy-to-understand chapters on counselling for:
grief
bullying
anger
anxiety
depression
friendships
career guidance
technology addiction.
Concise and practical, this book is essential reading for teachers who want to develop their counselling skills and be able to confidently support students in many of the challenges they face on their journey through school.
