Sleep problems are common in children. Between 25-40% of youth experience sleep difficulties such as sleep anxiety, insomnia, frequent waking, delayed circadian rhythm, night terrors, and nocturnal enuresis or encopresis 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. Step-by-step instructions show readers how to clinically assess and treat children from toddlers to teenagers, and case examples apply the instructions to real-life scenarios. The authors also provide over 30 handouts and worksheets for parents and children, including sleep logs and directions for a series of creative, at-home interventions, all of which can also be downloaded from a supplemental website.
