State-of-the-art guidance on the effective assessment and treatment of children and adolescents
with ADHD New updated edition Provides guidance on multimodal care and diversity issues
Includes downloadable handouts The updated new edition of this popular text integrates the
latest research and practices to give practitioners concise and readable guidance on the
assessment and effective treatment of children and adolescents with attention-deficit
hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). This common childhood condition can have serious consequences
for academic emotional social and occupational functioning. When properly identified and
diagnosed however there are many interventions that have established benefits. This volume is
both a compact "how to" reference for use by professionals in their daily work and an ideal
educational reference for students. It has a similar structure to other books in the Advances
in Psychotherapy series and informs the reader of all aspects involved in the assessment and
management of ADHD. Practitioners will particularly appreciate new information on the best
approaches to the ideal sequencing of treatments in multimodal care and the important
diversity considerations. Suggestions for further reading support groups and educational
organizations are also provided. A companion volume Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
(ADHD) in Adults is also available.
