In the newly updated sixth edition of The Adolescent Psychotherapy Homework Planner, a team of distinguished practitioners delivers a time-saving and hands-on practice tool designed to offer clients valuable homework assignments that will further their treatment goals for a wide variety of presenting problems. The Homework Planner addresses common and less-common disorders―including anxiety, depression, substance use, eating, and panic―allowing the client to work between sessions on issues that are the focus of therapy.

• Several brand-new assignments, as well as adapted assignments that have been shortened or modified to make them more adolescent-client-friendly
• Homework assignments for the parents of adolescents in treatment, assignments for the adolescents themselves, and assignments for parents and adolescents to complete together

An essential and practical tool for therapists and practitioners treating adolescents, The Adolescent Psychotherapy Homework Planner, Sixth Edition will benefit social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, and other clinicians seeking efficient and effective homework tools for their clients.
