Beschreibung:
Norma S. Guerra is a nationally certified school psychologist and a licensed professional counselor-supervisor. Her research interests include social cognitive problem solving, self-regulation, attention, and engagement styles. Dr. Guerra is the author of Clinical Problem Solving Case Management, which addresses attention toward positive change.
Written for educators and professionals, this book examines the cultural challenges Latinos/as encounter as they move from one social setting to the next. Problem solving is presented as a skill, strategy, and protective factor in the development of resiliency and self-efficacy. This solution-oriented approach facilitates Latino/a personal and professional development in processing the unexpected. The book introduces the LIBRE Model problem-solving activity as the tool to negotiate positive change by (1) affirming cultural competency, (2) supporting self-regulated decision making, (3) monitoring self-engagement styles, and (4) developing resiliency toward smoother transitions. The goal is to provide the reader with partnering tools that will empower Latino/a engagement, personal management, and active self-agency in managing decisions, challenges, and choices.
