Pearlman and Schwalbe, clinical psychologists, partner with Cloitre, a psychiatric research scientist to present a model for clinicians treating bereaved children called Integrated Grief
Therapy for Children. Designed for flexibility, this cognitive behavioral approach is evidence-based and meant to include the caregiver. The technique consists of three stages of treatment,
explained in depth throughout eleven chapters. Assessment measures, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, coping mechanisms, and behavior problems are discussed. The handbook is
supplemented by case studies, therapist scripts, and activity sheets. Annotation 穢2010 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
