Jeremy P. Shapiro: Child and Adolescent Therapy, Gebunden

Klappentext

The most comprehensive textbook on the theory and practice of child and adolescent therapy
Child and Adolescent Therapy: Science and Art is a unique textbook that introduces readers to the major theoretical approaches to therapy (CBT, family systems, etc.) and applies them to all the most common diagnoses (anxiety, conduct disorder, etc.). It models the thought process of expert therapists, providing a strong basis for treatment planning and clinical decision-making. Theoretical concepts, empirically supported treatments, and best practices are translated into concrete examples of therapist verbalizations and conversations between counselor and client. Unlike edited books with chapters by different authors, this work is an integrated whole, with connections between chapters and themes developed throughout the book.
This Third Edition has been thoroughly updated to reflect current research and clinical publications. It also features new material on:
The Internal Family Systems therapeutic model, which is growing in popularity, thanks to positive research outcomes
The mental health consequences of the Covid pandemic on young people, including increased rates of depression and delayed academic progress
The advantages and disadvantages of teletherapy as a delivery format for mental health services
Revisions to the DSM 5 based on the current Text Revision (DSM-5-TR), as well as smaller updates

This textbook offers a thorough and practical introduction for graduate students in psychology, counseling, and social work. It also serves as a valuable reference for mental health professionals already working with children and families.
