Summary

"This indispensable book presents a readily accessible, research-based approach to understanding the unique challenges of separation anxiety and giving children and parents the skills they need to overcome it. Incorporating the proven concepts and methods of cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), the authors' program is grounded in decades of hands-on clinical experience. Written in a lucid, down-to-earth style, this is a state-of-the-art guide for clinicians seeking to provide the best possible care to children, adolescents, and their families." "Authoritative, highly practical, and rich with clinical wisdom, this book fills a key need for clinic- and school-based mental health practitioners working with children and families. An informative resource for students, it is an ideal supplemental text for graduate-level courses."--Jacket.
