Filled with vivid clinical material, this book describes effective practices for helping children and their families who are coping with chronic and acute health conditions and their treatment. Concise chapters on the psychosocial challenges associated with specific pediatric health conditions are organized around detailed case presentations. Demonstrating procedures for assessment, case conceptualization, brief intervention, and health promotion, the book highlights ways to collaborate successfully with medical providers and families. Chapters also discuss the varied roles that pediatric psychologists play in hospitals, outpatient clinics, primary care, and educational settings. See also Handbook of Pediatric Psychology, Fourth Edition, edited by Michael C. Roberts and Ric G. Steele, which comprehensively examines links between psychological and medical issues from infancy through adolescence. "Fills the need for a user-friendly volume that reflects the broad scope of practice in this exciting area of psychology. Experienced practitioners provide comprehensive coverage of typical presenting concerns and settings, clinical roles, and psychological practice with specific pediatric conditions. Readers will appreciate the compelling case studies that describe assessments and interventions in rich detail. This outstanding book is a 'must read' for pediatric psychologists and other professionals working with pediatric populations. It is an excellent text for graduate students, interns, and fellows developing skills as practitioners."--Dennis Drotar, PhD, Department of Pediatrics, Cincinnati Children's Medical Center "This unique and important book is an important guide for pediatric psychology practice. Roberts, Aylward, and Wu cover a broad array of topics that are essential keystones of practice. It is particularly compelling to see chapters on such cutting-edge issues as technology applications and reimbursement alongside chapters on established areas of practice, including consultation-liaison services, cancer, diabetes, and asthma. The book balances the evidence base on each topic with helpful conceptualizations and descriptions of pediatric psychology treatment cases."--Anne E. Kazak, PhD, ABPP, Co-Director, Center for Healthcare Delivery Science, Nemours Children's Health Network "The editors have produced a skillfully organized and comprehensive guide to practicing pediatric psychology across settings and medical conditions. Advanced students and practitioners alike will benefit from the well-crafted chapters. The book addresses practice models and clinical roles and provides excellent, up-to-date summaries of clinical approaches to the most commonly encountered medical problems. Anyone planning to practice pediatric psychology in our rapidly evolving health care system will find this volume essential."--Gerald P. Koocher, PhD, ABPP, Dep.
