A concise, hands-on guide to treating pediatric sleep problems.

This second edition includes updated research and practice recommendations, a new chapter on disorders of hypersomnolence, and downloadable handouts in both English and Spanish. It also incorporates new information on sleep health equity, considering such factors as individual child differences, family circumstances, school start times, home environment, neighborhood differences, and sociocultural beliefs and practices.

Sleep difficulties are very common in children, with 25-40% of youth experiencing them at some point during childhood or adolescence. Yet, most healthcare providers receive little if any training in pediatric sleep problems-and most training that does exist tends to emphasize medical, rather than behavioral interventions.

This book presents highly effective behavioral interventions for common pediatric sleep problems such as sleep-related anxiety, insomnia, frequent night wakings, delayed circadian rhythm, sleep terrors, and nocturnal enuresis. Step-by-step instructions provide readers with the tools to clinically assess and treat children with sleep problems, and case examples show clinicians how to apply the instructions to real-life scenarios. To facilitate implementation, authors Lisa Meltzer and Valerie McLaughlin Crabtree also provide more than 30 downloadable handouts and worksheets that practitioners can share with parents and children.
