Synopsis:

Proposing a framework for residential treatment based on the principle of solution-focused therapy, this book sees the process as a co-operative one involving clients, parents and staff, with the aim of helping children and adolescents, and their families, develop new views of themselves as competent. A central rites of passage metaphor suggests that placement is a period of transition, when children can experiment with new ways of behavior.

About the Author: Michael Durrant, a psychologist and psychotherapist, is Director of the Brief Therapy Institute of Sydney in Sydney, Australia, and an Honorary faculty member in the Faculty of Education and Social Work, University of Sydney. He conducts training on aspects of Solution-Focused Brief Therapy in Australia and New Zealand, Asia and Europe.
