The DSM-5-TR Casebook and Treatment Guide for Child Mental Health has a singular aim: to help clinicians navigate the complexities of diagnosing and treating mental disorders in children and adolescents. Approximately 20% of children and adolescents in the United States have diagnosable mental health problems. Of those children in need, 50% do not receive mental health care.

Building on the 2017 DSM-5 edition, this guide helps bridge the gap between research and practical application. It incorporates updates and advances from DSM-5-TR as well as evidence-based assessment and treatment of children's mental health. The book is designed to be an indispensable reference and a teaching tool for trainees and clinicians of child and adolescent psychiatry, including mental health counselors, social workers, psychiatrists, psychologists, and nurse clinicians.

A roster of more than 120 field-leading contributors lend their expertise in 28 realistic case studies, each accompanied by commentaries that offer diverse perspectives on treatment approaches, from the psychotherapeutic to the psychopharmacological. The studies correspond to four categories:

1. Classic cases that include ADHD, major depressive disorder, and anorexia nervosa2. Comorbid complexities, such as children with multiple disorders or language and reading difficulties and adolescents who have misused prescription medications3. Toughest cases, which include nonsuicidal self-injury and children and adolescents at high risk for developing psychosis4. Kids in crisis, which examines young patients who have psychopathology in the context of extreme psychosocial stressors

Special attention is given to racial, ethnic, and cultural identity and how they affect diagnosis and treatment. The book's closing section discusses clinical and research issues in the diagnosis and treatment of child psychopathology.

Whether they are trainees acquainting themselves with child mental health care or more experienced clinicians seeking a proxy for a second opinion, readers will find this volume an invaluable resource for improving the lives of young people facing mental health challenges.
