Book description
Handbook of Interventions that Work with children and adolescents considers evidence-based practice to assess the developmental issues, aetiology, epidemiology, assessment, treatment, and prevention of child and adolescent psychopathology. The editors have selected world-leading contributors to provide overviews of empirically validated intervention and prevention initiatives. All in all, the handbook presents encouraging evidence that we can intervene successfully at the psychosocial level with children and adolescents who already have major psychiatric disorders and, as importantly, that we can even prevent some of these disorder from occurring in the first place.
