Keywords

Abstract

Because the community lacked counseling services for whole families experiencing separation and divorce, The Boomerang Bunch was conceived, designed and implemented by six school counselors to identify and therapeutically address changes impacting the participant families as they attempted to " bounce back" from separation and divorce. Building on the strengths and resilience of these families, school counselors met with students and their families at the community public school outside of school hours for 8 weeks. The rationale, group process, techniques, therapeutic activities, and outcome are outlined providing school counselors with the specifics to replicate The Boomerang Bunch in their school setting. © 2007 ASGW.
