Integrating theoretical and practical aspects, leading experts offer their experience through case examples and vignettes, suggesting guidelines for overcoming inherent treatment obstacles.

Handbook of Cognitive-Behavior Group Therapy with Children and Adolescents Reviews

This book would be a good read for any school psychologist who will be doing therapy with students, regardless of their knowledge of CBGT. -Dan Seaman, NCSP in Communique, Volume 36, Issue #8.

The handbook is a very useful resource in outlining group programmes (e.g. adolescent coping with depression, with free download of the manuals and workbooks) and outlining the modules of a programme.

-Anna Solly, Clinical Psychologist, Behavioural & Cognitive Psychotherapy Journal, Vol. 36, 2008

Although handbooks abound, relatively few are available for group therapy and group work. This excellent handbook helps meet the gap....sensibly organized...The quality of the chapters is high and fairly consistent, which is a tribute to the fine work of the editors...Much is to be learned from this significant handbook...highly recommended to practitioners who wish to use CGBT with children and adolescents, as well as scholars and researchers who wish to study and understand this efficient, effective, and versatile group treatment modality. This handbook will be very useful to social workers who wish to employ the CGBT approach with children and youth.

- Steven R. Rose, Social Work with Groups
