Treating Disruptive Disorders
Treating Disruptive Disorders is a practical book for busy clinicians—
psychiatrists, psychologists, mental health counselors, clinical social
workers, and more—as well as students, interns, and residents in the men-
tal health professions. It distills the most important information about
combined and solitary treatments of a variety of psychological disorders
characterized by disruptive behaviors, including those where disruptive
aspects are part of core symptoms (like ADHD, ODD, or conduct disor-
der), and those where disruptive features are commonly associated with
core symptoms (like mood, personality, and cognitive/developmental dis-
orders). In addition to an analysis of the best in evidence-based practice
and research, the volume also includes brief clinical vignettes to help
present the material in an easily accessible, understandable, readable,
and relevant format. The chapter authors are experts in the treatment of
these disorders and review a wide variety of empirically supported treat-
ments for children, adolescents, and adults.
George M. Kapalka, PhD, is the author or editor of six books, including
Pediatricians and Pharmacologically Trained Psychologists: Practitioner’s Guide to
Collaborative Treatment; Counseling Boys and Men With ADHD; and Parenting
Your Out-of-Control Child (which has been translated into eight foreign
languages), as well as dozens of articles in professional journals and other
peer-reviewed publications. His views and opinions have been quoted in
various newspapers and magazines (including the New York Times), as well
as on television (including NBC). He is a practicing psychologist and holds
board certifications in clinical psychology and psychopharmacology.
