Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
This lively, practical book offers a complete guide to doing cognitive therapy with children and adolescents. Within a clear-cut theoretical framework, the authors describe how to adapt cognitive therapy principles and procedures to the unique needs of children with a variety of presenting problems. The book starts with the fundamentals, demonstrating a systematic yet flexible approach to case conceptualization and treatment planning. Detailed guidelines are then presented to help the clinician introduce cognitive therapy to children and families; identify problems, feelings, and thoughts; craft Socratic dialogues; design homework assignments; and implement a range of traditional and creative interventions. Concluding chapters focus explicitly on techniques for managing depression, anxiety, and disruptive behavior in youth. Devoting special attention to cultural diversity issues, the book is filled with illustrative case examples and session vignettes. Included are many useful reproducible worksheets and forms.

I thought that the book provided good examples. I work with adolescent offenders and this book was helpful in providing ideas that could work with them (sometimes). Well naturally they would not work on every adolescent that came through but it was good experimentation.

I'm still working my way through the book; but what I like is that its an easy read and you can incorporate it in to practice as you are going along. Its an excellent way to learn specific ways to use Cognitive Therapy with both children and adolescents. They do a good job of disinguishing between the two, which is important when you work with the two age groups. If you like specific techniques, and easy to follow explanations this is a worth while book.

This book is ideal for anyone with some knowledge about psychology. It provides some general information regarding cognitive-behavioral theory, but it does so in almost a "need to know" format; as the book goes through the outline of how to conduct a session according to the cognitive-behavioral formati, it explains the rational behind the design in a clear and intelligent way. A great supplement to a Master's level education.
