Description

This book is a collaborative effort between child and adolescent psychiatrists and adult psychiatrists, aiming to be the first resource on transitioning pediatric psychiatric patient to adult psychiatric care. Written by experts in this emerging field, the book begins by discussing the developmental presentation of many common mental health diagnoses and topics, with each chapter containing clinically-relevant features that receiving providers should consider when continuing mental health treatment from the child and adolescent system. Chapters will cover a wide range of challenges that are unique to transition-age youth. Unique developmental needs, special populations, and DSM diagnoses such as anxiety, mood, trauma, and personality disorders are discussed. Each chapter will begin with clinical pearls before delving into the specifics.

Transition-Age Youth Mental Health Care is an excellent resource for all mental health professionals who may transition a late teen or early adult patient to adult psychiatric care. Child and adolescent psychiatrists, adult psychiatrists, psychologists, college mental health professionals, school administrators, social workers, and therapists will find the content practical and relevant.
