Treating Adolescents is a comprehensive guide to
adolescent mental health care, synthesizing evidence-based practice
and practice-based perspectives to give providers the best advice
available. By limiting the discussion to disorders which appear
during adolescence, this useful manual can delve more deeply into
each to present extensive evidence and practice-based rationales
for approaching a range of psychopathologies. This edition has been
revised to reflect the changes in the DSM-5 and the ICD-10, with
entirely new chapters on ADHD, learning and executive function,
bipolar and mood disorders, sleep disorders, and suicide and
self-injury. Coverage includes non-therapy interventions, such as
pharmacological and environmental. The discussion of schizophrenia
and psychotic disorders includes adolescent presentations of
Pervasive Developmental Disorders and their relationship to
classical schizophrenia.
In a developmental approach to adolescent psychopathology,
different treatments are carefully integrated and matched to
pathogenic processes in an effort to disrupt causal loops. This
book provides in-depth guidance for providers seeking well-rounded
treatment plans, with detailed explanations and expert insight.
Current scholarship favors developmental approaches to
psychopathology and supports an emphasis on integrated treatment
packages, including environmental, biologic, and psychological
interventions. With full integration of practice and research,
Treating Adolescents is a comprehensive reference for
constructing a complete treatment strategy.
