The group aims to encourage young people to develop alternative coping strategies for dealing with their feelings, thereby reducing the need to self-harm. Each session includes topics such as; anger\/anxiety management; relaxation; assertion\/communication skills; distraction\/channelling; problem solving; and self-control. Group members will receive printed information from the sessions to take away with them and build into a support reference. The sessions will enhance the individual's feelings of self-control and responsibility for their actions, giving them a sense of choice about how they deal with difficult situations and feelings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45237257404567,"sku":"9780863889790","price":3154.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780863889790.webp?v=1769216037","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/positive-focus-a-groupwork-approach-to-self-harm-9780863889790","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
