Author Note

In many local educational agencies school psychologists are in the midst of transitioning from a service delivery that is primarily assessment driven to one that focuses more on direct and indirect interventions with students. This process has been expedited in several states (e.g., California) due to the loss of categorical mental health funds, forcing school psychologists to become primary providers for such services among school-aged youth. Practitioners who are tasked with providing educationally related mental health services may require additional training and support in order to deliver evidence-based therapeutic interventions to at-risk youth in the schools (Suldo, Friedrich, & Michalowski, 2010). Creed, Reisweber, and Beck’s Cognitive Therapy for Adolescents in School Settings (2011) is a valuable addition to the library of clinicians and clinical supervisors who are responsible for delivering and overseeing such services. It serves as an introductory technical manual for treatment planning and cognitive case formulation as well as a step-by-step guide to delivering mental health interventions from a cognitive perspective. It differs from other cognitive therapy (CT) texts (e.g., Mennuti, Christner, & Freeman, 2012) in that chapters are written as clinical guides rather than traditional literature reviews of discrete applications of cognitive techniques.
