There is a new book that you will want to add to your professional library!
The Clinical Practice of Educational Therapy: A Teaching Model, edited by Maxine Ficksman and Jane Utley Adelizzi, is available for purchase through Routledge Education or Association of Educational Therapists.
The contributing authors will seat you at the table with educational therapists and their clients so you can witness the interplay of emotions and cognition that create opportunities for tailor-made intervention, informed through observation, interaction, and assessment. You will hear their voices, picture the interactions, the connections being made . . . and, the relief of success as it envelops the child who finally understandshow a new concept relates to his own fund of knowledge.
This groundbreaking text brings you into the lives of children, adolescents and adults with learning, attentional, and comorbid disorders as they work to achieve a sense of competency in the academic, intellectual, and social arenas of life.
You will feel the corners of your mouth upturned in a smile as you sense the feeling of accomplishment experienced by a client who is becoming familiarized with her formally unrealized sense of competence . . .
This book offers valuable training perspectives for both experienced and aspiring educational therapists. See www.aetonline.org for professional training programs in colleges and universities, both live and online.
