This book highlights the ongoing trend of brief treatments in psychotherapy for child and adolescent populations.  Whereas their therapeutic predecessors may have taken 15 to 20 one-hour sessions or more, these newer therapies may begin to alleviate symptoms in only weeks, days, or even hours on the same day. Interest in child and adolescent brief and intensive therapies is currently at an all-time high on the heels of research showing impressive results for these interventions. Treatments such as One-Session Treatment for specific phobias which occurs in only one, three-hour session or Intensive Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy with Exposure and Response Prevention for obsessive-compulsive disorder which occurs 3-5 times weekly in 1-3-hour sessions over several weeks, are prominent examples. This volume builds on this growing interest and the emerging child and adolescent research, summarizing the efficacy of these interventions.  Further, this volume will include key introductory chapters on the emergence of brief and intensive therapies, the ethics of their use, their cost-effectiveness, and the current state of the science. Brief therapies for specific disorders and via specific methodologies comprise separate chapters. Each chapter incorporates an exemplar case study (including a case overview, formulation/conceptualization, treatment description, follow-up, and recommendations for refractory cases).  Also included are multicultural insights and ethical considerations.  Furthermore guidance is provided on how to use the current and ongoing evidence base to inform formulation and treatment.  This volume is timely and thorough in its presentation of the relevant literature and provides a much-needed resource for students, practitioners, and researchers alike.In a moment where youth mental health problems are on the rise, this is the book we need!Tara Peris, Ph.D. UCLALike Superman squeezing coal into diamonds, Davis and Storch have compiled the definitive guide to brief, concentrated psychotherapy.Eli Lebowitz, Ph.D. Yale Child Study CenterDavis and Storch score big in this edited volume on Brief, Intensive, and Concentrated treatments for a host of childhood problems.Thomas Ollendick, Ph.D. Virginia Tech

This book highlights the prevalence of emotional disorder and substance use disorder comorbidity and effective approaches to managing these co-existing problems. As substance use disorder is twice as likely to co-exist with an anxiety disorder, and three times as likely to co-occur with a mood disorder, treatment is a complicated challenge.

This book provides an understanding of body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), a psychiatric classification that is characterized by a preoccupation with a perceived or slight imperfection in physical appearance.

This book aims to reconcile a disconnect in the field of trauma psychology: On one hand, decades of accumulated evidence support the safety and efficacy of prolonged exposure therapy (PE) for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). On the other hand, many individuals suffering from PTSD cannot access PE. Even among individuals who begin PE, many experience challenges in completing a full course of treatment. Further, PTSD is a complex and heterogenous disorder; not all individuals who complete PE experience a meaningful benefit. PE is an evidence-based psychological treatment that helps individuals approach situations and memories related to their trauma so that they learn to think differently about the trauma and no longer experience intense distress when confronted with trauma reminders. This book is designed for clinicians and researchers who share the goal of increasing the reach and impact of evidence-based treatment for individuals with PTSD. Each chapter synthesizes the latest research findings and provides clear clinical guidance to inform adaptations to improve access, engagement, and clinical outcomes for PE.Obtaining the best outcomes with prolonged exposure requires not only trained and skilled clinicians—it requires clinicians who have the ability to adapt, enhance, and tailor it for individual patients and settings. This should be a required textbook for all students and trainees in the area of psychological trauma.Alan L. Peterson, PhD, ABPPThe first book of this type, the authors have provided valuable new information and summarized succinctly the academic literature that is the underpinning of the success of this approach to psychological care. It is both a comprehensive and essential book for all those interested in treating and studying trauma survivors.Terry Keane, PhDThis book is… timely, including telemental health, intensive delivery formats, digital interventions, and virtual reality. Clinicians and researchers will find it invaluable. Barbara Olasov Rothbaum, PhD, ABPP

Including these significant others in clinical assessment and treatment offers unique benefits and can augment or exceed the benefits of individual interventions.""The practice of CBT ideally considers the individual in context, within family, peer, and partner relationships.

Additionally, guidance for implementing CPT in alternative treatment formats (e.g., group treatment, intensive delivery modalities, and telehealth) and advice for navigating systemic barriers and disseminating CPT across different healthcare settings are included.

Progress feedback uses standardized measures to routinely evaluate treatment progress regularly throughout treatment, and helps the practitioner decide whether adaptations in the treatment approach are necessary.

This book provides the latest theory and research on the critical connection between depression and insomnia for scientist-practitioners and practitioner-scholars, alike. It equips the reader with specific recommendations for conceptualizing, assessing, and treating depression and insomnia, and related issues in therapy. Part I of the book focuses on the depression-insomnia link and highlights relevant processes, such as difficulty with anticipating or pursuing rewards, rumination and worry, and stress and affect dysregulation. Part II of the book reviews existing cognitive behavioral interventions for depression and insomnia, including cognitive behavioral therapy for depression, cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia, mindfulness-based therapies, and acceptance and commitment therapy, as well as how they may be used, modified, and delivered to treat these problems. Finally, Part III reviews application of the science and clinical practice recommendations to several special populations, including college students and emerging adults, older adults, individuals with comorbid  psychiatric disorders, and individuals experiencing medical illness. Investigators, students, and practicing professionals will find this cutting-edge presentation an invaluable resource for issues that are common occurrences in psychotherapy.

This volume brings together cutting-edge work of LGBTQ+ health experts and master clinicians on the forefront of treatment development, adaptation, and implementation. It is designed for clinicians, educators, students, and researchers who want to implement LGBTQ+ affirming practices today. Every chapter includes rich case examples, clinical dialogue, and lessons learned, with particular attention to under-represented topics (e.g., person-centered assessment, co-occurring trauma and minority stress) and groups (e.g., Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, veterans, older adults, people with disabilities).

This book is the first comprehensive edited volume focused on treatment approaches for chronic pain specifically in women and girls. Utilizing evidence-based psychosocial techniques, it is directly applicable to the work of all mental health practitioners, and provides a rich resource of descriptions of chronic pain conditions that predominantly or uniquely impact women and girls, as well as practical guidance for implementing treatment, enriched by detailed case studies. Since chronic pain in women and girls is often minimized or dismissed in the medical setting, this book provides new insights into the understanding and management of chronic pain specifically in the female population.

This book provides an evidence-based, up-to-date overview of the centrality of the therapeutic relationship in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Contemporary scholarship on the importance of the therapeutic alliance, or working relationship between therapist and client, is examined. Other aspects of the therapeutic relationship that receive less attention in the CBT literature are considered, including transference and countertransference and the real relationship. In addition, other factors relevant to a successful therapeutic relationship are discussed in the content of CBT. Throughout the book, insights from theoretical orientations other than CBT are integrated, and clinical applications are presented. This book represents the pinnacle of psychotherapy integration and is relevant to all practicing mental health professionals, including psychologists, psychiatrists, clinical social workers, and counselors, and psychotherapy process researchers.

This practice-oriented volume helps clinicians recognize, address, and repair ruptures in the therapeutic alliance in CBT. Alliance breakdowns often prompt clients to drop out of treatment, while a strong alliance paves the way for improved outcomes. Although CBT is known for its structured, evidence-based methods, its collaborative nature and relational frame have received comparatively less attention. This book fills that gap by bridging research and practice. Each chapter focuses on a specific clinical population or challenge, weaving together the latest research findings with case examples, therapist-client dialogues, and practical tools in a clear, reader-friendly format.

This book examines the critical function of being able to think and respond fluidly. Rigid patterns—like rumination, narrow ways of interpreting events, or behavioral avoidance—are often linked to problems such as anxiety, depression, eating disorders and obsessive compulsive spectrum disorders. Because of this, many effective therapies focus on helping people broaden their thinking and try new, healthier behaviors. This book brings together research from both science and clinical practice to explain what flexibility is and why it matters for mental health. It translates recent scientific findings into practical guidance for therapists and highlights current treatment approaches that target inflexible thinking and behavior.
