About this title

Synopsis

Psyche-Soul-ology: An Inspirational Approach to Appreciating and Understanding Troubled Kids is a companion text to At the Mercy of Externals: Righting Wrongs and Protecting Kids, 2nd Edition. Dr. Roberts presents a spiritually based application of his theories and the Roberts FLAGS Model detailed in his first book. His use of the term Psyche-Soul-ology focuses on the importance of addressing both the minds and souls of troubled kids. Of utmost importance is the need to look beyond the obvious external behaviors and problems of every kid, making an effort to see who they truly are relative to their unique potential for redirecting their lives. By looking into each kid it is possible to discover their uniqueness and encourage them to understand who they are intended to be, rather than who they are becoming. Dr. Roberts stresses the importance of complicating factors serving as obstacles to the progress of low income, disadvantaged kids. He focuses heavily on professional ethics and the need for both extreme compassion and full competence when working with troubled kids and their families. Both of these books are vital for parents and professionals if we are to fight against social injustices associated with poverty and other complicating factors.

Review

A complex and ultimately uplifting look at everyday crises faced by troubled kids, as told by a compassionate psychologist on the front lines.” by Kirkus Reviews

“Roberts explores psychological methods to help adults offer troubled kids the kind of guidance that could not only change lives but save them.” by Foreword Reviews

“Roberts concludes that his generally clear and well-written text is “Divinely Inspired.”This, and some of his more controversial ideas, could raise eyebrows among some readers. Still, it should be fruitful reading for mental health professionals, youth counselors and anyone else interested in the mysteries of psyche and heart.” by BlueInk Review
