Clinical Practice of Cognitive Therapy with Children and Adolescents: The Nuts and Bolts PDF

This text covers all the basics of cognitive therapy as it applies to children and adolescents. Chapters include Case Conceptualization, Session Structure, Connecting Feelings and Thoughts, Therapeutic Dialogues, Commonly Used Cognitive and Behavioral Techniques, Creative Applications of Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Homework. Specific chapters are devoted to working with depressed children and adolescents, disruptive children and adolescents and anxious children and adolescents. There is also a chapter on working with parents. In my view, this book is better suited to therapists who already have a working knowledge of CBT and who are looking for guidelines to apply CBT to children and adolescents. Overall this text is an excellent overview of CBT (including references) as it applies to children and adolescents. This reviewer has an M.Ed in counseling and 20-years of experience in counseling and social work.

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.
