About this title

Synopsis

For many children who have a brother or sister with special needs, the experience can be fraught with a wide range of emotions, from confusion to an overwhelming sense of responsibility. It can also develop a lens imbued with compassion and insight. Now, the co-founders of Sibling Group, an expressive art therapies based support group model, have created a compassionate, comprehensive guide to forming a Sibling Group that helps siblings cope with these conflicting feelings. Sibling Group Lends a Helping Hand is an indispensable resource to gain clinical insight into both the psychological and emotional dilemmas, as well as the extraordinary opportunities for compassion, relatedness, and growth. The reader will learn about the use of expressive arts therapies as applied to this unique support group format and gain confidence in communicating with siblings of children with special needs. Resources for other supports are included.
