Beschreibung:
Ben Anderson-Nathe is Assistant Professor in Child and Family Studies at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon, where he also coordinates undergraduate practicum experiences for students entering the fields of youth work, social work, and education. His areas of research and teaching are youth development, youth worker training and development, human sexuality, anti-oppression organizing and education, and the bridges between theory and practice in public policy, health, and social services.
This book explores how youth workers experience the moment of not-knowing what to do in the helping relationship. Professionals often talk about the stress and doubt they feel after moments in which they did not know how to respond.
