Understanding the roots of anger and encouraging appropriate and
acceptable ways of expressing this are essential skills for anyone
working with young people. Working with Anger and Young People
warns against 'quick fix' solutions to dealing with anger, and
draws on the author's experiences of youth counselling and training
workshops to propose helpful interventions for addressing anger
effectively and moving on from it. From attachment anxieties and
feelings of powerlessness, to frustration at difficult family
relations, Nick Luxmoore considers the common reasons for young
people's anger during this difficult stage of their development.
Through accounts of his work with a range of young people, he
offers tried-and-tested exercises and talking points to help work
through common counterproductive responses to anger such as
antisocial behaviour and physical or verbal violence. Crucially, he
also recognises the needs of those working with these young people
with anger problems and provides advice on working safely,
maintaining control and achieving job satisfaction. This sensitive,
accessible book will be an informative and engaging resource for
anyone working with young people with anger issues.
