| Summary |
Summary: "From leading scientist-practitioners, each chapter begins by examining a specific symptom dimension and its relationship to frequently encountered disorders. Coverage includes seeking safety behaviors, social anxiety, obsessive thoughts, inattentiveness, negative affect, moodiness, eating problems, and sleep disturbances. Insightful guidelines are presented for developing a differential diagnosis that identifies both primary and comorbid conditions. The reader is taken step by step through assessment and treatment planning, and session by session through evidence-based treatment procedures. Extensive, detailed examples illustrate the nuts and bolts of formulating complex cases; tailoring interventions to each child's cognitive, behavioral, social, emotional, and developmental needs and strengths; and collaborating successfully with parents. The nuances of the therapeutic process are thoughtfully considered, as are ways to overcome roadblocks and reduce relapse risks. This is a resource for all mental health professionals working with children and families. Students in clinical and school psychology, psychiatry, social work, counseling, and related fields will find it an innovative, highly informative text."--BOOK JACKET." |
