Dealing with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorders among Children and Adolescents

Information for Children, Adolescents and Parents

by Gunilla Wewetzer, Christoph Wewetzer

Description

Recurring worrying thoughts and feelings of fear and repetitive behavior are signs of obsessive compulsive disorders which negatively influence daily activities of the affected children and adolescents and their family members. This guidebook explains not only the background behind the recurring behavior but also outlines effective treatments as well as self-help approaches. The book, furthermore, uses case studies to illustrate the cognitive behavior Therapy and offers exercises and other helpful material for both parents and children which support children and adolescents while overcoming their compulsions. This guidebook aims to inform those affected by obsessive compulsive behaviors and encourage them to seek professional help.

Target Group: Children and adolescents with obsessive-compulsive disorder and their parents as well as youth and child psychologists and psychiatrists, pediatricians, educators and family counselors.
