Revitalize the CBT interventions you use with children and adolescents with this fun and creative guide.

This book incorporates pop cultural references from music, movies, sports, the superhero genre and videogames, tailored to the personal interests of youth patients, to engage them with CBT treatment. It explores how using pop culture references in CBT can:

· Enhance rapport established between youth patients and their clinicians
· Increase treatment motivation and reduce dropout by adapting interventions to be more developmentally appropriate and individualized
· Improve clinician flexibility with implementing manualized protocols
· Increase CBT skill acquisition and mastery by utilizing pop cultural references to engage different learning styles

Practical tools, such as therapist-patient scripts, tables linking specific CBT skills to pop cultural references, and CBT case formulations, will help you implement this approach with your clients.
