Language impairment in childhood and adolescence: presentation,
diagnosis, comorbidity, assessment, and empirically validated
psychotherapeutic treatment. As many as half of children and
adolescents presenting for mental health services have language
impairments, often undiagnosed. This book offers a clear and
comprehensive description of language impairment emerging in
childhood and its implications for clinical practice with children
and adolescents. The book is filled with many clinical pearls and
examples of the way language impairment impacts on the child's
symptom picture and influences treatment. After discussing DSM-IV
and the planned DSM-5 criteria, it then goes on to provide the
reader with an easy-to-follow plan on how to conduct the assessment
with the child and parents, and the steps to take in initiating
treatment. Unique modifications to empirically validated treatments
are recommended for language-impaired children with comorbid
anxiety or disruptive behavior disorders. Anyone who works with
children and adolescents will benefit from this book.
