Many children and teenagers refuse to attend school or have
anxiety-related difficulties remaining in classes for an entire
day. School refusal behavior can contribute to a child's academic,
social, and psychological problems, impact a child's chances for
future educational, financial, and personal success, and
significantly affect family functioning. Cognitive Behavioral
Therapy (CBT) has been shown to be a highly effective treatment for
youth who exhibit this behavior. The third edition of When Children
Refuse School, Therapist Guide, provides an updated multi-tiered
approach model that can be used to effectively address the main
types of school refusal behavior. The Guide introduces new material
on very severe and chronic cases of problematic absenteeism,
including alternative educational avenues and expansion of manual
procedures, for children and adults. This manual includes tools for
assessing a child's reasons for school refusal behavior and is
based on a functional, prescriptive model. It presents well-tested
techniques arranged by function to tailor treatment to a child's
particular characteristics. Each treatment package also contains a
detailed discussion of special topics pertinent to treating youths
with school refusal behavior, such as medication, panic attacks,
and being teased. A corresponding workbook is also available for
parents, who often play an important part in a child's recovery.
This comprehensive program is an invaluable resource for clinicians
treating school refusal behavior.
The Anxiety Disorders Interview Schedule for DSM-5, Child and
Parent Versions, are the gold standard semi-structured interviews
used in clinical research and services to assess and diagnose the
major mental health conditions affecting children, adolescents and
young adults. These interviews cover the range of conditions
identified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders (DSM), while also providing information for careful case
formulation in treatment planning and evaluation of outcomes.
Evaluators are able to quantify the severity of illness using a
Clinician Severity Rating (CSR), as well as level of severity of
symptoms and associated avoidance behavior. Decision rules for
combining parent and youth reports, examples of CSR levels for the
child anxiety triad of separation anxiety disorder, social anxiety
disorder, and generalized anxiety disorder are included in the
Clinician Guide, as well as detailed information on use of the
Autism Supplement. This item includes one Clinician Manual.

In this workshop, Dr. Albano explains how adolescent development
can impact the development and maintenance of anxiety disorders.
She begins by describing the typical developmental progression of
anxiety and fear from preschool to adolescence, along with risk
factors for developing an anxiety disorder. Dr. Albano also
describes ways that clinicians can create developmentally sensitive
approaches to the treatment of anxiety disorders for adolescents
using a cognitive-behavioral framework. She also describes the
important role of parents in the treatment of anxiety symptoms.
Throughout this workshop she demonstrates techniques through case
examples and role-plays. Runtime: 259 minutes.
Shyness and social anxiety are common emotions experienced by
children and teenagers. When intense, they often result in the
avoidance of social situations and can significantly impair a
child's functioning and emotional development. Left untreated in
its clinical state, Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) is a serious
condition often lasting into adulthood. Cognitive Behavioral
Therapy (CBT) is highly effective in treating adults with SAD and
has been successfully adapted for the treatment of youth. This
therapist guide presents a group treatment program for adolescents
aged 13 to 18 that uses well-tested CBT techniques. In this
program, groups of 5 to 7 youths with excessive shyness or social
anxiety learn how to cope in social situations. Cognitive
restructuring exercises help participants understand their anxiety
and reexamine thinking that may contribute to their distress. Other
exercises teach social and problem solving skills, and also
increase self-esteem and assertiveness. Behavioral exposure
exercises give participants the opportunity to practice these
skills by systematically confronting them in feared or avoided
social situations. This guide offers practical instruction on how
to apply this program, as well as information on the theory and
research on which it is based. It provides session outlines for
adolescent group therapy, including sample dialogues, role-playing
scenarios, and homework assignments. It also addresses individual
therapy and provides tips for conducting the treatment with
children aged 8 to 12.
