Collaborative Problem Solving

J. Stuart Ablon and Alisha R. Pollastri, authors of The School Discipline Fix. , present this Quick Reference Guide to their Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) approach for changing child behaviour in mental health and home settings. This must-have resource distills the multistep approach into six easy-to-follow panels, in the convenient form of an 8. 5"×11" laminated card for in-the-moment reference. Here, clinical staff, parents, guardians and other CPS trainees will find crucial information about the guiding philosophy of the approach; the cognitive skills that contribute to children's behaviour; the key aspects of a CPS assessment; information on planning and prioritising the treatment; and step-by-step instructions for completing CPS itself.
