This second edition provides a uniquely comprehensive guide to the practice and principles of child and adolescent psychotherapy around the world and has been thoroughly updated to take into account the many changes that have taken place.

This updated edition of The Handbook of Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy reflects the many changes in the profession. It includes:

• enlarged chapters on research, attachment theory, work with parents, and developments in child and adolescent psychotherapy around the world
• chapters on areas of specialist interest including violence, sexual abuse and abusing, trauma, parent-infant psychotherapy, autism, victims of political violence, delinquency and gender dysphoria.

The Handbook remains accessible and jargon-free. It will be a valuable resource for all who work in allied professions where the emotional well-being of children is of concern – health, education, social services – as well as trainee psychotherapists and experienced practitioners.
