State-of-the-art guidance on the effective assessment and treatment of children and adolescents with ADHD

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 ADHD in Adults is also available.From the reviews
“A comprehensive but impressively brief book that will quickly become a recommended resource for folks in graduate training programs and for practicing psychologists alike … A gem in an overwhelming book landscape.As a provider treating and assessing ADHD for more than 15 years, it is infrequent that I find a book that captures my attention like this one did. I enthusiastically recommend it to colleagues.”
Dr Cami Winkelspecht, Wilmington, DE, in Independent Practitioner, 2024
“The authors have examined an extensive body of scientific literature spanning pediatrics, family practice, psychiatry, neurology, and psychology. The outcome is a book designed to be easily understood by mental health practitioners engaged with individuals having ADHD that provides an updated and comprehensive overview of the literature and of pertinent professional issues. The book includes clinical vignettes and supplementary resources catering to parents, families, youth, and professionals. These resources encompass academic texts, references, apps, websites, and more. I am confident that this book will swiftly become an essential resource for mental health experts engaged in clinical work in the ADHD population.”

“This book is unusual in balancing comprehensiveness and brevity. The authors provide essential background information and practical guidelines for assessing ADHD and applying psychosocial and pharmacological interventions. The book is ideally suited as a quick reference guide for the busy clinician.”
