Outcome studies have shown that treatment does not work if administered too late. Preventing Childhood Disorders, Substance Abuse, and Delinquency presents the newest research on the effectiveness of prevention and early intervention programs with children, from birth to adolescence. The contributors to this volume examine the theory and practice of leading programs designed to prevent social and behavioral problems--including violence and substance abuse--in children and adolescents. The innovative programs analyzed here focus on social skills training for children with conduct disorders, anger coping group work for aggressive children, parent training programs, life skills training for substance abuse prevention, and programs for high-risk youth and rural populations. All designed to intervene before the onset of disorders or to deal effectively with problems when they first appear, many of the programs also emphasize strengthening family, school, and community involvement for successful risk reduction. Clinical psychologists and human services professionals who work with children and youths will find Preventing Childhood Disorders, Substance Abuse, and Delinquency illuminating. This book also will be of interest to policy makers who are looking for more effective and efficient interventions to child and adolescent problems.

How do we address and treat anger from a behavioral standpoint? Can marital problems be treated effectively using cognitive-behavioral therapy? Leading researchers and practitioners set out to answer these questions and more in Advances in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, a timely volume that provides a unique perspective on the use of cognitive-behavioral therapies. Instead of focusing on different forms or models, this volume examines the use of cognitive-behavioral therapy with a range of disorders such as posttraumatic stress, agoraphobia, and chronic pain. This book also includes several topics seriously underrepresented in other texts, including personality disorders and child/adolescent disorders. Excellent integration of empirical research with clinical applications characterizes this valuable volume. Advances in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy will appeal to advanced students, researchers, and practitioners in clinical psychology, developmental psychology, social work, interpersonal violence, nursing, and criminology. Those interested in issues relating to aging and interpersonal violence will also benefit from reading this book.

Empirically Supported Therapies
Best Practice in Professional Psychology
Inbunden, Engelska, 1998

Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
In 1995, the APA division on clinical psychology created a task force to compile a list of empirically validated procedures. Those left off the list were deemed invalid, leading to much controversy in the field of mental health service. Adding to the controversy are mental health corporations and HMOs that are using or planning to use the task forceÆs lists to determine which interventions they will reimburse for and which they will not. Empirically Supported Therapies responds to this recent interest in basing practice on the empirical validation of interventions and treatments. Organized into two parts, the first comprises theoretical issues surrounding the development and promotion of empirically validated interventions. In the second part, contributors examine some of the validated interventions as illustrations of the issues involved in the debate. Presenting a balanced examination of a controversial topic, Empirically Supported Therapies is a much needed contribution to the literature for professionals in clinical and counseling psychology, human services, interpersonal violence, social work, developmental psychology, and nursing.

New Directions in Prevention and Treatment across the Lifespan
Inbunden, Engelska, 1997

Skickas inom 3-6 vardagar
Child Abuse brings together experts in both physical abuse and sexual abuse to create one of the few volumes that has addressed innovative approaches to treatment and prevention in these two areas. The resulting compendium of information provides insights into the current psychological perspectives on the causes and treatment of different forms of child maltreatment as well as the delivery of early intervention and prevention services. The book begins in the first part with a conceptual overview of the effect of physical abuse on the life course of children and adults. Chapters on physical abuse also examine recent findings related to child abuse offenders, children who witness domestic violence, treatment of abusive adults, and prevention programs aimed at dating adolescents and pregnant women. Contributors focusing on child sexual abuse note new approaches to the delivery of treatment services for these children as well as current developments in the interface between abuse victims and the court system. Considering the needs of both adult survivors and children, Child Abuse also discusses how child maltreatment interventions can be integrated into broader intervention services. An ideal book for use in professional training and development, Child Abuse will also guide policymakers at state and national levels to emerging new models and programs. This volume is likewise a useful resource for researchers and practitioners in social work, clinical/counseling psychology, mental health, and public health.

Whilst I see this book of particular use to anyone doing research into the subject of anxiety and depression in adults and children, it will be a useful resource for a variety of people in the caring professions including counsellors and psychotherapists. --Donald Calder in Counselling "This is a collection of papers by well-respected researchers in this growing field. It is a book for the specialist rather than the jobbing child psychiatrist or psychologist but a useful reference text nevertheless." --Alison Wood in ACCP Child Psychology & Psychiatry Review "This book certainly does bring together disparate areas of research and integrates them in an informative and interesting way. It will be particularly valuable for clinicians interested in child and adolescent depressive and anxiety disorders, since it includes a lot of material from work with adults that is often hard for such clinicians to assess. A very useful addition to the library." --H. C. Steinhausen in European Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Written by the foremost theorists and practitioners in the field, this cohesive study focuses on recent advances in treating anxiety and depression in adults and children. A range of topics are covered including self-management therapy, assessing and treating sexually abused children, and unipolar depression. Published in the Banff International Behavioral Science Series, this volume integrates empirical research with clinical applications. Case examples and exercises are used throughout to illustrate important clinical concepts. Among the other topics covered are emotional processing in anxiety disorders, psychotherapies for depression, cognition in depression and anxiety, and phobic disorders in children. Practitioners, advanced students, and researchers in clinical and counseling psychology, developmental psychology, social work, interpersonal violence, and psychiatric nursing will find this an excellent resource.
