This book brings together well-renown experts in the treatment of psychological conditions in children and adolescents. Each chapter includes a description of currently available, empirically supported cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) interventions, factors that would limit outcome in therapy, a case illustration that highlights the prognostic indicators that would interfere with treatment outcome, and guidelines on managing these specific limiting conditions. The contributors also discuss conditions that have typically been associated with poorer outcome. This title describes currently available empirically supported CBT interventions. It highlights 'treatment failures' and presents tailored treatments to cases with complicating factor. Child specific diagnoses, clinical challenges, and associated clinical management in a child relevant manner is included. This title features case illustrations for each condition that highlights potential interference with positive treatment outcome.
