Featuring a unique clinical and educational approach, Demystifying
the DSM: A Tool for School Counseling Students and Practitioners
introduces readers to common diagnoses among children and youth.
The text also provides counseling students and practitioners with a
baseline knowledge of the cognitive and behavioral effects of
common diagnoses on the academic, social, and emotional development
of children in K-12 settings. The text recognizes that school
counselors do not diagnose, but are charged with working with
students within the school environment, so understanding common
diagnoses for children and youth is a critical component of job
effectiveness. Each diagnosis addressed was selected in
consultation with experienced practicing school counselors. The
chapters cover autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, bipolar disorder,
eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder, social anxiety
disorder, PTSD, self-harm, grief and bereavement, among other
common diagnoses. Each of the 17 chapters includes case examples
with related questions, as well as strategies for working with
children and youth with the particular cognitive or behavioral
disorder addressed. Demystifying the DSM is well suited for courses
and programs in counseling, school counseling, and special
education, as well as teacher education and school psychology.
