This casebook provides an abundance of realistic cases illustrating issues in assessing and treating child psychopathologies. Although traditional core textbooks often present short scenarios
to illustrate key concepts, this casebook provides students with an opportunity to apply skills in case formulation and diagnosis using fully developed actual practice cases. A major goal of
this casebook is to assist students in developing their decision-making and problem-solving skills in face of the full complexities of childhood psychopathologies. It's only through exploring
realistic, complex cases that students learn to integrate the theory and research-based assessments and interventions they've been learning from textbooks and previous course work.
