He is equally well known as the author of books for parents and caregivers as he is for his world-renowned research on the topic of resilience. As a writer he has adapted ideas from his research and clinical practice into best selling works like <em>Too Safe For Their Own Good: How Risk and Responsibility Help Teens Thrive</em>, and his most recent release, <em>I Still Love You: Nine Things Troubled Kids Need from Their Parents</em>. In total, he has published 14 books, 125 peer-reviewed articles and book chapters, and maintains a blog on <em>Psychology Today</em>’s website. In another of his many roles, he is the founder and co-director of the Resilience Research Centre that coordinates millions of dollars in research in more than a dozen countries. That work has inspired many of Michael’s books and articles for mental health professionals and researchers, including <em>Working with Children and Youth with Complex Needs: 20 Skills to Build Resilience</em>, and <em>The Social Ecology of Resilience</em>.</p> | | | |
