Psycho-education is an orientation to the education of
students with emotional and behavioral problems involving
behavioral change within the context of current
developmental and psychological theories. This book is a
practical guide for teachers dealing with angry,
aggressive, and troubled students.

Blending cognitive, affective, and behavioral components,
psycho-education gives teachers skilled management
strategies to help children change dysfunctional behaviors
and develop effective coping skills. Dealing successfully
with behaviorally and emotionally troubled children
requires a high level of sophistication and behavior
management expertise that few teachers have. Standard
teacher training often overlooks this topic and that which
is available to teachers is often too superficial or simply
inadequate.

For more than twenty years I've been working in and outside
the classroom with in-depth psychological models, research,
and interventions to formulate the techniques I put forth
in my new book. I share my findings, experience, and know-
how in a straightforward fashion, steering clear of too
much technical jargon, and instead focusing simply on
what's effective and useful in step-by-step language. This
book is a required resource for both regular and special
education teachers, counselors, school psychologists, and
administrators with and interest in psycho-educational
theory.

ESSENTIAL PSYCHO-EDUCATIONAL SKILLS FOR TEACHERS is a
timely book that focuses on child guidance techniques and
strategies based on psycho-educational principles to help
students self-correct and self-manage disruptive behaviors.
