Description

Now in a revised and updated second edition, this clinically oriented casebook and text presents empirically supported interventions for a wide range of child and adolescent problems. Leading cognitive-behavioral therapists demonstrate assessment and treatment approaches that have been carefully adapted--or specially designed--to meet the needs of young patients. Incorporating the latest, most innovative techniques, the volume reflects significant recent advances in knowledge about vulnerability and resilience, processes of change, and treatment effectiveness. Following a consistent format, each chapter reviews the relevant literature and presents an extended case example bringing to life what an experienced therapist might do, why, and how to do it. With new chapters on OCD, personality disorders, and social anxiety, the casebook also addresses oppositional behavior, ADHD, substance misuse, depression, sexual abuse, high-functioning autism, PTSD, and other frequently encountered clinical challenges.
