This book provides an abundance of ′real life′ cases which demonstrate methods in assessing and treating a wide spectrum of child and adolescent psychopathologies in a variety of settings. The case-formulation approach is featured throughout, with a focus on biological, psychodynamic, behavioural, cognitive and family-systems frameworks. The cases provide an opportunity for students to apply and practice new knowledge and skills in the manner of a practicing clinician. The book features current trends in assessment, diagnosis, treatment and research. It is an ideal hands-on resource for a child and adolescent psychopathology course.
