Child and adolescent therapy : cognitive-behavioural procedures Upplaga 2

Now in its revised and updated second edition, this volume describes effective cognitive-behavioural approaches to a range of frequently encountered child and adolescent disorders. The second edition incorporates significant developments in treatment procedures, theory, and clinical research. The book begins with a guiding model for conducting multifaceted treatment that is sensitive to individual and developmental concerns. Chapters by leading clinician researchers then address specific behavioural and emotional problems, including aggression, anger, ADHD, depression, anxiety disorders, and difficulties faced by children with chronic health conditions. Providing a practical overview of salient clinical techniques, each fully updated chapter also summarizes related literature and considers future directions for research and practice. Entirely new chapters examine the current status of empirically supported interventions and address developmental issues specific to work with adolescents.
