Helping Your Patients Learn Evidence-Based Skills

  • Guided Self-Management Toolkits teach children, adolescents, and their families evidence-based skills to effectively manage early, mild anxiety, depression, ADHD, and behavior problems

  • You can provide the self-explanatory toolkits to patients and their families to learn and practice on their own, or you can provide the toolkits as adjunctive "homework" during a course of psychotherapy

  • The toolkits can be accompanied by "Understanding..." handouts for patients and families that describe in everyday language the cause, diagnosis, and treatment of the target disorders, along with lifestyle and parenting tips that can be helpful in managing the symptoms

  • A detailed manual and training video provides you with guidance about effectively using the toolkits

  • You also can direct your patients' parents to the Kids & Families page of this website for free videos and podcasts that can help them manage everyday parenting challenges, including a new video course about dealing with misbehavior
