Other strategies have been proven effective using the best cur- rent standards of evidence, resulting in broad-based recommendations to make these practices more available to the public. Several recent de- velopments are behind this revolution. First, we have arrived at a much deeper understanding of pathology, both psychological and physical, which has led to the development of new, more precisely targeted inter- ventions. Second, our increased understanding of developmental issues allows a finer matching of interventions to developmental levels. Third, our research methodologies have improved substantially, such that we have reduced threats to internal and external validity, making the out- comes more directly applicable to clinical situations. Fourth, govern- ments around the world and healthcare systems and policymakers have decided that the quality of care should improve, that it should be evi- dence-based, and that it is in the public’s interest to ensure that this hap- pens (Barlow, ; Institute of Medicine, ). Ofcourse, the major stumbling block for clinicians everywhere is the ac- cessibility of newly developed evidence-based psychological interven- tions. Workshops and books can go only so far in acquainting responsi- ble and conscientious practitioners with the latest behavioral healthcare practices and their applicability to individual patients. This new series, ProgramsThatWork™, is devoted to communicating these exciting new interventions to clinicians on the frontlines of practice. The manuals and workbooks in this series contain step-by-step detailed procedures for assessing and treating specific problems and diagnoses. But this series also goes beyond the books and manuals by providing an- cillary materials that will approximate the supervisory process in assisting practitioners in the implementation of these procedures in their practice. In our emerging healthcare system, the growing consensus is that evidence- based practice offers the most responsible course of action for the mental health professional. All behavioral healthcare clinicians deeply desire to provide the best possible care for their patients. In this series, our aim is to close the dissemination and information gap and make that possible. This therapist guide, and the companion workbook for patients, ad- dresses the treatment of panic disorder and agoraphobia in adolescents. The onset ofthe disorder often occurs in adolescence and, left untreated, panic symptoms can continue into adulthood. Adolescence is a time of significant developmental growth, and therefore the impact of the dis- order can be severe. Panic disorder and agoraphobia can interfere with school attendance, social functioning, and autonomous development. It has also been associated with higher rates of depression. This guide uses a cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) approach based on the well-established MAP treatment program for adults. It has been specifically developed and tested for use with adolescents ages –. Through psychoeducation, cognitive restructuring, and exposure tech- niques, adolescents learn about the nature ofanxiety and panic and how to face their fears. An optional parent component involves parents in each session; handouts provide them with tips for parenting their anx- ious teen. The guide also offers suggestions on adapting the material for younger patients and for intensive treatment. For therapists working with the adolescent population, this guide is a unique and valuable resource. It offers a proven and effective treatment that helps therapists work with adolescents to overcome their avoidance and deal with their panic. David H.
