Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Dr. David Wexler describes an innovative treatment program for troubled adolescents that addresses central problems of the "self". The problems of substance abuse, anxiety, aggression, self-destructive behavior, eating disorders, and mood swings can usually be traced to fundamental deficits, particularly in the ability to self-soothe. This book models a range of carefully designed strategies to address these central problems of the adolescent self.

Book News Annotation:

The author, a psychologist at Rancho Park Hospital (El Cajon, Calif.), describes a program that evolved there to address central problems of the self in troubled adolescents.
