This groundbreaking text on the practice of educational therapy will be a useful tool to new ETs, as well as a reaffirmation for experienced ETs. The chapters include rationale for the significance of educational therapy in a diagnoses-driven society. The chapter authors provide the reader with reflective analyses based on case studies which exemplify how the learning experiences of clients impact their sense of self, and the degree of tenacity with which they pursue further challenges in the classroom, the workplace, and in relationships.
These are the people for whom educational therapy provides relief, enlightenment . . . and, the coveted prize of success.
