Abstract

Anxiety disorders in childhood are among the most common mental health problems in this age group and are often associated with significant distress and functional impairment. This article reviews the cognitive processes thought to underlie the development and maintenance of anxiety disorders in childhood and the cognitive and behavioral treatment interventions for anxiety from this framework. Special emphasis is placed on developmental issues constraining the use of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) for childhood anxiety disorders and the methods used by child anxiety researchers and clinicians to address the specific needs of this younger population. The results of several controlled trials suggest that when delivered in a developmentally sensitive fashion, CBT is a highly effective and durable treatment for anxiety disorders in children and adolescents.
