Editorial Review:

Revised and expanded with six entirely new chapters, the third edition of this authoritative volume presents effective cognitive-behavioral approaches for treating the most frequently encountered child and adolescent disorders. Leading scientist-practitioners have contributed fully updated chapters on aggression, anger, ADHD, depression, anxiety disorders, and developmental issues specific to working with adolescents. New chapters cover obsessive/n-/compulsive disorder, eating disorders, reactions to disasters, sexual abuse, suicidality, and psychotherapy process issues. The latest empirical findings and evidence-based clinical techniques are integrated throughout this outstanding clinical resource and text, and many new case illustrations have been added.

An excellent resource that will be used over and over again by anyone working with children and adolescents.
