Cognitive Therapy with Children and Adolescents: A Casebook for Clinical Practice

by Mark A. Reinecke (Editor), Frank M. Dattilio (Editor)

While cognitive-behavioral therapy has developed rapidly in recent years, its application with children and adolescents has received only minimal attention. Expanding the boundaries of contemporary cognitive-behavioral therapy, this much-needed volume addresses myriad up-to-date strategies and techniques for treating common difficulties experienced by children and adolescents. Grounded in a strong developmental orientation, contributing authors address numerous disorders that are commonly confronted by mental health professionals working with children and their families, as well as other problems that are encountered less frequently. Chapters begin with a review of the relevant literature, then present extended case examples, including DSM-IV diagnoses, which clearly demonstrate the use and implementation of cognitive-behavioral techniques.

[Kelly Reinhart · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is fantastic for clinicians working with children and adolescents. The chapters are set up to discuss different diagnoses/issues that are relevant to children and adolescents. What I loved most about it was that it not only explains the mental illness and treatments, but it connects why the specified treatments work for the issues and gives case examples. The case examples were incredible helpful in picturing how the intervention would be carried out during sessions.

Ruh sağlığı alanında çalışan herkes için harika bir buşvuru kitabı. Bilişsel terapinin çocuk ve ergenlerin yaşadığı sorunlarda nasıl kullanılacağına dair detaylı teorik ve vaka paylaşımlı içerikler mevcut. Yaşanan belli başlı önemli sorunların hepsine değinilmiş ve oldukça kapsayıcı. Kitabın dili de oldukça rahat ve anlaşılır. Kuramsal bir kitap için bu çok önemli.
