Talkabout for adults: developing self awareness & self esteem

TALKABOUT for Adults is a practical resource to help therapists or support staff to develop self-awareness and self-esteem in adults.

It has been particularly aimed at adults with an intellectual disability (learning disability) or older children with special needs.

It has been adapted from the Talkabout for Children: developing self-awareness and self-esteem book to be suitable for an older audience.

This means that some of the activities are almost identical but a number of them have been adapted to be more appropriate.

There are also some new activities such as the 'A book about me.' which enables the adults to make up a book over the course of the sessions that will summarise some keys personal facts.
