A Therapist's Guide to Adolescent Development is a practical guide to understanding adolescent development and applying developmental knowledge in therapeutic practice.

Chapters explore development and therapeutic considerations for specific age ranges in pre-adolescence, early, middle, and late adolescence. The final chapter includes reproducible, age-specifc handouts about adolescent development for use by counselors and therapists to educate and collaborate with adolescents and their significant adults, including parents, caregivers, teachers, and mentors. Clinical examples representing diverse clients are provided throughout the book to support culturally sustaining practice and practical application.

This unique and meaningful book will benefit any mental health professional or student who wants to integrate developmental knowledge into practice in a way that educates, empowers, and promotes collaboration with adolescents rather than pathologizing them.

"It's finally here! By bringing together experts in adolescence, Jayne and Purswell have created an invaluable resource for mental health professionals. This volume provides a detailed and practical look at each year of adolescence, grounded in research and evidence. Counselors will use this book to expand their knowledge and as an invaluable resource tool for practice with adolescents and their families."

Dee C. Ray, PhD, regents professor and director of the Center for Play Therapy at University of North Texas

"In this much-needed book, the authors share astute perspectives that look closely into an exciting stage of life that is often stereotyped as a 'difficult period.' This book not only motivates us to effectively work with adolescents; it also helps us examine our own adolescent lives and cultivate deeper self-understanding. It is a unique and exceptional book."

Yumiko Ogawa, PhD, associate professor of clinical mental health counseling at Marist College
