  • Summary

    Anxiety and depression impact many children and adolescents and cause significant impairments in multiple domains. Child and adolescent psychotherapy have now been researched for approximately 50 years and the extant literature suggests that structured, manualized treatments produce a significant benefit for this specific population. Overall, research indicates that youth-focused behavioral psychotherapies, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), demonstrate robust effects across multi-informants (i.e., child/adolescent, parent, and teacher). Individual CBT for child and adolescent anxiety disorders and depression has a strong evidence base. When adapting and implementing CBT with young clients, there are important considerations regarding treatment planning, including assessment, diagnostic and differential considerations, case conceptualization, implementation of interventions, and consistent reassessment with outcome measures.
