The book provides structured practical counselling techniques for both CR and SST. The populations of this study were Secondary School students who demonstrate symptoms of APD. A sample were drawn using Avoidant Personality Test (DSM ¿ II APD) which was administered to the the sampled students. Those in the treatment groups were exposed to either CR or SST 30 minute treatment sessions weekly for twelve (12) weeks which were made up of twelve sessions.
