Synopsis

Since the fifth edition of the Concise Guide to Child and Adolescent Psychiatry appeared in 2017, the field has seen significant changes. Refined evaluation methods, an expanded body of evidence-based treatments, and shifting perspectives on stigma have influenced both clinical care and public conversation. The COVID-19 pandemic, increased use of social media, and ongoing barriers to care have further shaped the ways professionals support young patients and families. This sixth edition distills and incorporates updated research and expert input to reflect current practice. It includes revisions aligned with DSM-5-TR criteria, streamlined diagnostic and treatment information, a new chapter on neuromodulation, and contributions from additional expert authors. Importantly, the guide maintains its practical approach, with clear and easily referenced summary tables, key references, and suggested resources for parents. Covering neurodevelopmental, anxiety, mood, trauma-related, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and others, this resource offers concise, practical guidance for diagnosis and treatment. Intended as a primer for medical and mental health students and trainees, it is also a valuable resource for practicing clinicians seeking an up-to-date reference.
