Parent and Teacher Empowerment that helps Children succeed

I have worked with J. Brien O'Callaghan and seen him implement his model in the CT. School Systems. His step by step accountability based approach are very helpful and have helped many students succeed. This model works best with oppositionally defiant and conduct disordered children. Brien's model has become a standard assessment tool as a school psychologist and family therapy intern to help families try to re-balance the levels of "control" and "protection" in their families.

O'Callaghan's ideas borne out

O'Callaghan's book is well-written, well-informed, and persuasive. His structural approach has now been tried in several school based locations, including one recently featured in ACA's newsletter. This material is useful for school-based counselors, school teachers and administrators, and recipients of school referrals for counseling for troubled children.
