Resources Review "Finally, a book that brings together the wide variety of strategies available for working with families of children with mood disorders. The authors clearly show how psychoeducational psychotherapy differs from simple education. Readers will especially appreciate the wealth of clinical information and the practical, how-to approach, supplemented by reproducible handouts." - David J. Miklowitz, University of California, USA "This book raises the bar for evidence-based practice resources. The authors are not just familiar with the research, they have contributed much to it, and they are also experts at engaging families. As a researcher, I am impressed by how up to date the information is. As a clinician, I appreciate the combination of a clear structure and strong supporting materials. The book provides extensive handouts and exercises for teaching and reinforcing core skills. This book combines art, science, and wisdom in a blend that will raise the game of anyone working with children who struggle to regulate their emotions or form lasting positive relationships." - Eric Youngstrom, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, USA Long Description Packed with ready-to-use clinical tools, this book presents the first evidence-based psychosocial treatment for school-age children with bipolar disorder or depression.

Review Quote "There is a great need for empirically proven psychosocial strategies for enhancing childrens emotion regulation and coping. This book provides refreshing, incisive guidance and insights for families coping with severe mood disorders.
