Widely regarded as the standard reference and text on evidence-based therapies--and now substantially revised--this book has introduced tens of thousands of clinicians and students to exemplary treatments for social, emotional, and behavioral problems in children and youth. Concise chapters focus on specific psychotherapy models. The developers of the respective approaches review their conceptual underpinnings, describe how interventions are delivered on a session-by-session basis, and summarize what the research shows about treatment effectiveness. The book explores important questions and challenges facing the field and identifies best practices for treatment dissemination in real-world clinical contexts. New to This Edition: *Existing chapters significantly revised with the latest treatment research. *Chapters on assessment, personalizing evidence-based therapies, clinical implications of developmental psychopathology, and advances in neuroscience. *Coverage of additional clinical problems (self-injury and suicidal ideation, bulimia nervosa, encopresis) and treatments (Early Start Denver Model for autism spectrum disorder, Internet-assisted and technology-enhanced interventions). *Chapters on implementation in complex mental health systems, as well as international models.
*Concise and practical: experts present skill units based on five core principles of change, giving providers maximum flexibility to tailor treatments to children's (ages 6 to 15) unique needs. *FIRST is an alternative to manuals that address a single problem, can be used with simple or complex cases, and is efficient to learn. *The treatment is empirically based but designed for real-world community practice; includes reproducible parent handouts in English and Spanish. *Each skill unit is effective used on its own, of key benefit for youths who may not stay in treatment long.
In this book, a clinical scientist highlights youth psychotherapies that have been tested and shown to work. Treatments for fears and anxiety, depression, attention deficits and ADHD, and conduct problems and disorder are described in detail, their conceptual basis explained, their clinical application illustrated by richly developed case examples, and their prospects for use in clinical practice examined closely. This clinical perspective is complemented by summaries and critiques of the empirical evidence on each treatment and by commentaries on what questions remain unanswered. The author's clinical and scientific experience converge to produce a uniquely valuable experience on exemplary treatments for children and adolescents.

In Effects of Psychotherapy with Children and Adolescents, the authors provide an authoritative overview of the practice and study of child and adolescent psychotherapy. Research findings on the effects of child psychotherapy are pooled through the use of meta-analytic procedures and then analyzed and summarized by the authors. They discuss methods for increasing the effectiveness of everyday therapy and offer suggestions for future research. "This short book should be carefully read and its message thoroughly internalized by every professional who is involved in any way in either deciding about therapy for a child, vending or providing therapy for children, evaluating therapy for children, and imposing therapy on children." --Issues in Child Abuse Accusations "Overall, the book is an excellent orientation to the question of the effectiveness of psychological interventions for children and provides a good set of directions for future research. Although most of the material is available elsewhere in the form of individual articles, this highly accessible comparison and synthesis of outcomes is worthwhile reading for practicing clinicians and researchers alike. . . . The book would be a very suitable introduction to questions concerning the efficacy of therapy for children and adolescents. It should be essential reading for clinicians in training who plan to work with children, and is a useful integration of the research literature for researchers and practitioners as well." --Contemporary Psychology
