Educational Psychology Casework
A Practical Guide
Rick Beaver
`As the author says himself the methods and perspectives are not new, but what this book does is to raw all these strands together, thereby bringing both a useful theoretical perspective as well as practical strategies to the day-to-day work of an educational psychologist... Whilst including the above he has structured the book to discuss the essential elements of educational psychology casework practice in some depth, with examples using strategies from his integrated model based on actual practice. The examples are very helpful for the reader… Whilst the book is presented as an integrated whole, there is also much to dip into… The appendix holds some interesting items which can be translated into practice and there is also a section on story telling... This is an important book which should be read by any educational psychologist who is looking for ways in which to enhance their work with children and adults and which is also likely to be of value to others working with schools and families, where the focus is on achieving beneficial change on behalf of young people.'
