Tina Rae specializes in social, emotional and behavioral disorders
and difficulties. She has undertaken research in the areas of
engagement and disaffection with learning in young people,
debriefing following critical incidents, attachment disorders,
emotional well being and the psychological assessment of young
offenders. Rae is experienced in assessing children and young
people with respect to learning difficulties, emotional well being
and relationships with carers.
She is a registered member of the Health Professions Council and a
full member of the British Psychological Society. She is currently
a Professional and Academic tutor on the Doctorate in Child and
Educational Psychology at UEL. Tina is a member of the SEBDA
executive and council and a member of ENSEC.
With 68 publications to date, she has written extensively on topics
such as well-being, attachment, resilience, emotional literacy,
behavioural problems, anger and stress management, critical
incidents, cognitive behavioural therapy, motivational
interviewing, solution focused brief therapy, loss and bereavement
in young people, youth offending and social skills development.
′The Anger Alphabet is invaluable for those who work with young
people as professionals in either education or social care. Like
the previous edition, this book gives sound advice, practical
activities, and a clearly structured programme of experiences and
opportunities to help young people develop an internal locus of
control over their emotions. This edition has new illustrations,
activities for outdoors and new practical tools such as charts,
checklists and lists of strategies for young people, their parents
and their teachers. Coping with stress, anxiety and self doubt is a
challenge for many, but for those who struggle with attachment
difficulties or are on the autistic spectrum, these challenges can
be overwhelming. The Anger Alphabet is a highly effective programme
providing fun and stimulating sessions that help young people
manage, not repress, their emotions. Helping young people to
develop these skills can be important for the day to day management
of a classroom or group. More importantly however, this programme
provides lifelong strategies that can support mental and emotional
health and wellbeing, the forming and maintaining of relationships,
motivation and success in learning, the development of positive
values and attitudes, and the building of self-confidence. Tina Rae
has once again given professionals working with children and young
people a highly effective tool for their toolkit′
