Pointers for Parenting for Mental Health Service Professionals (Paperback)

Rooted in clinical experience, this book evolved as a result of the authors' hands-on experience of working with parents and children for over two decades. This useful aid provides a collection of pointers that professionals can use in order to advise on parenting skills. Professionals will also be able to recommend the guide to parents so that the pointers can serve as a reminder of what was discussed during the consultation session. This book also describes an adapted behaviour modification approach which is effective in helping to improve children's behaviours and the parent-child relationship.

"Pointers for Parenting for Mental Health Service Professionals" is an accessible resource for processionals that work with children and families, for example, clinical psychologists, psychiatrists, school medical officers and social workers. It will also be of use to people training in these areas.
