Pediatric Anxiety Disorders

Pediatric Anxiety Disorders provides a critical, updated, and comprehensive overview of anxiety disorders in children and adolescents based on the current state of empirical research. With a range of international expert contributors, the book provides specific clinical recommendations which integrate new knowledge from neuroscience as well as innovative delivery formats for interventions. This is the first reference to examine anxiety diagnoses in accordance with the latest edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), including childhood onset disorders such as Separation Anxiety Disorder, Selective Mutism, Specific Phobia, Social Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
