Introduction to mental health treatment for adolescents -- Finding treatment -- Psychotherapy -- Psychiatric medications -- Major depressive disorder -- Bipolar disorder -- Anxiety disorders -- Psychotic disorders -- School-related disorders -- Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder -- Substance abuse -- Personality disorders -- Behavioral disorders: oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder -- Eating disorders -- Obsessive-compulsive disorder and tic disorders -- Reactions to stress, loss, and illness -- Reactions to trauma -- Dangerous behavior: suicide, self-injury, and violence -- Autism spectrum disorders / Charles Henry.
Mental Health Disorders in Adolescents provides essential information to help parents, educators, and general practitioners find effective ways to identify and treat psychiatric disorders that many teens face. Two reader-friendly sections, "Recognizing the Problem, Finding Help, and Negotiating the System" and "Common Psychiatric Problems in Adolescence" are supported by two appendices. One appendix provides a list of resources, organizations, books, websites, and phone numbers. The other is a "treatment organizer" to help parents know what school and medical data to bring to a psychiatric evaluation and teach them how to keep track of important discussions related to their child's treatment.
