Using case examples of language for all age groups, readers learn first how to identify the salient targets or themes, deliver a session that hits these targets with precision, and then connect the session to the child's everyday experience.

Chapters focus on the most common issues that children face, including anxiety, depression, medical procedures/pain, and sleep.
