A CBT workbook for young people with OCD and autism, for use in clinical settings
To be used alongside the clinical manual, Challenging OCD in Young People with ASD, this workbook gives young people with ASD the tools they need to treat and recover from their OCD.
OCD is particularly prevalent in young people with ASD. This workbook, structured as a flexible 20-session programme, adapts CBT treatment to the specific needs of young people with OCD and ASD.
The workbook uses simple illustrations and diagrams to explain ways to challenge OCD thoughts and behaviours and includes fun and engaging activities for use within sessions and at home. An essential resource for clinicians treating young people with OCD and ASD, it will encourage and engage the young person in their recovery process.
This workbook is intended to be used in conjunction with the clinical manual for this title, Challenging OCD in Young People with ASD: A CBT Manual for Therapists.
This is an excellent, practical guide written with children, families and clinicians in mind. Dr Jassi has created an accessible workbook and companion manual which will be essential resources for clinicians working with OCD and autism. Step by step session plans will guide novice and more experienced therapists to confidently deliver evidence-based treatment with adaptations for ASD developed through clinical experience. -- Dr Kate Johnston, Consultant Clinical Psychologist, National & Specialist CAMHS, South London & Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust
Dr. Jassi has filled a notable gap in the field by authoring an evidence-based CBT protocol for treating OCD in young people with ASD. The user-friendly and well-written manual and accompanying handbook promise to significantly and positively impact the way in which clinicians care for individuals with ASD and comorbid OCD. -- Eric Storch, Ph.D. McIngvale Presidential Endowed Chair & Professor Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences Baylor College of Medicine
