Abstract

Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a psychosocial treatment with strong scientific evidence supporting its use with youth for a variety of emotional and behavioral problems. This chapter provides a broad overview of CBT with youth divided into three sctions. In the first section, the behavioral and cognitive theories that underlie the CBT approach are described. We also discuss how the two theories have been integrated into theories used to guide CBT. In the second section, a description of specific techniques commonly found in CBT is provided along with a review of the typical modalities employed to deliver CBT. Finally, the third section focuses on the delivery of CBT.
