Navigate the challenging world of child and adolescent psychology with this valuable guide
Treatment of psychological distress in children is an enormously challenging and rewarding practice. Children and their psychological needs vary widely, and successful practitioners must be open to a range of treatment practices and toolkits in order to create a tailored program for each child. The field of child psychology has only recently begun to develop the body of evidence-based theories and models required to clearly direct clinical practice; as a result, a confident child psychological therapist must remain flexible, engaged, and curious.
Becoming a Confident Child Psychological Therapist offers a comprehensive guide to developing that confidence and curiosity and applying it in a clinical setting. Drawing upon the latest research and therapeutic models, it offers a practical, hands-on discussion of all aspects of the child psychological practice, from perinatal services to adolescent therapies. The result is an indispensable guide to navigating a unique set of challenges.
Becoming a Confident Child Psychological Therapist readers will also find:
- Treatment of topics including neurodivergence, working in schools, trauma informed practice, and many more
- Detailed discussion of Your Choice CBT and London Vanguard, two programs for reducing youth-driven community violence.
- An authorial team with decades of experience in both research and clinical practice
Becoming a Confident Child Psychological Therapist is ideal for any clinical practitioner specializing in child or adolescent psychology.
