“This is an important book in that it presents many interesting strategies meant to increase the emotional competence of children and adolescents and offset skill deficits that can lead to emotion dysregulation. This book could be used as adjunctive reading in any graduate mental health training program focusing on children and adolescents. The modules are presented in a workmanlike fashion and follow sound reasoning in their sequence….This book will be a valuable addition to many practitioners’ libraries and, more importantly, the content will add many potentially effective strategies to those working with individuals with skill deficits in emotion regulation….This book can be recommended to any practitioner working with this population.”

“The book meets a long-standing need with its thorough and clear explication of the role of emotions in evidence-based treatment. It is a gold mine of ideas. Southam-Gerow, an accomplished scientist and master cognitive-behavioral therapist, is a leader in the application of effective treatments in real-world clinical contexts. Anyone working with children who struggle with anxiety, depression, or anger will find this book eminently practical and a pleasure to read.”

“Southam-Gerow expertly weaves together theoretical principles, empirical evidence, and clinical experience. He offers clearly explained, creative ways to identify and address problematic deficits in emotion regulation processes with children and adolescents. This hands-on guide, written from a behavioral perspective and derived from a strong evidence base, fills a notable gap in the field. It will be greatly appreciated by clinical child practitioners.”

—Janice L. Zeman, PhD, Professor and Chair, Department of Psychology, College of William and Mary


“This volume provides an impressive integration of the science of emotion and its clinical application. The book is versatile and will be useful to psychotherapy practitioners and students alike. The modular approach—suitable for young people experiencing a range of psychological difficulties—is especially valuable. I see this book becoming a 'go-to' resource for all clinicians working with school-age children and adolescents.”
