Written by professor of clinical psychology Bruce F. Chorpita, Ph.D., Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Childhood Anxiety Disorders is a practical guide for professionals to treating childhood anxiety with proven exposure-based techniques. The modular treatment regimens are expressly designed with flexibility and adaptation to individual needs in mind. Presented from an emphatically "real-world" perspective, Modular Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy for Childhood Anxiety Disorders can be tailored to deal with motivational problems, disruptive behavior, family issues, and common clinical stumbling blocks. Worksheets, records, and handouts supplement the modules and the in-depth discussion concerning how to apply them and deal with common problems. Highly recommended as a supplementary resource for professionals in the field.

This is probably the most practical of all the CBT for childhood anxiety I've read. It not only addresses some of the issues in modifying the treatment, through the use of modules and monitoring of treatment, but takes you through the key components of effective treatment.
The writing style, somewhat informal and easier to comprehend than most similar manuals, takes a little getting used to.

Es un libro realmente bueno y muy util para los terapeutas que trabajamos con niños
