Found this book to be helpful in working with children and adolescents. There are some great idea i this book, but it seems that it would work better for someone in a school environment instead of a private practice. Some of the ideas I can change to work for counseling and individuals. I think this would be a great book for anyone who works in schools to read in order to work with children and adolescents who have ADHD, conduct disorders and opositional defiance.

best used for school/classroom setting
