Description

Twenty percent of school-aged children in the U.S. experience mental health issues each year, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most effective, empirically supported interventions available. This practical, quick-reference handbook is for mental health professionals in the K-12 school setting who are seeking a hands-on guide for practicing CBT. Based on a wealth of research supporting the efficacy of CBT for school-aged children, it features specific interventions that can be put to use immediately and is tailored to the needs of busy school psychologists, counselors, and social workers. Offering developmentally appropriate treatment plans for specific issues based on DSM-5 criteria, the book describes how to use CBT within contemporary school-based service delivery frameworks such as multi-tiered systems of support (MTSS) and Response to Intervention (RtI).
