"The C.A.T. Project" Manual For The Cognitive Behavioral Treatment Of Anxious Adolescents

The C.A.T. Project is an evidence-based CBT program for adolescents dealing with anxiety. The manual itself walks you through each session, including session goals and tips for helping the session be as effective as possible. It is easy to read and follow and phrases things in a more adolescent-friendly frame (think 11 years and up) than Coping Cat (essentially the same program but for younger children). I have used this with a 5th grader most recently and it helped structure our sessions together. The manual refers constantly to the workbook, which is purchased separately. You really need both together if you are going to use this program. However, it is well worth the cost.

Great

Arrived promptly! This is a great resourse! I highly tevommend it to run groups or individual therapy sessions with teens who suffer from anxiety or anger.

Good resource for clinicians.

good

This manual has been very helpful to me as a new clinician working with anxious youth. I just can't imagine why the author chose to exclusively use male gendered pronouns -- It feels so wrong.

Material is good but dated. Re-write for 2024? Greatly welcomed!
