Reviews for A Transdiagnostic Approach to Develop Organization, Attention and Learning Skills: The GOALS Treatment Manual for College Students

GOALS is a must have for anyone working with college students. It's a well-researched, up-to-date, and practical guide for group therapy for students with executive function difficulties. Compared to individual therapy manuals designed specifically for ADHD or learning disabilities, GOALS expertly describes a more efficient, scalable approach for teaching skills to last a lifetime: notetaking, time management, and overcoming procrastination. This manual deserves a permanent place on your desk, you'll never need to put it away on your shelf! Carla Counts Allan, PhD, Division Chief of Psychology at Barrow Neurological Institute, Phoenix Children's Hospital. With the increasing number of college students needing support for organizational and executive function challenges, GOALS is a must-have resource for all clinical providers and clinics serving this population. GOALS provides clinicians with evidence-based, efficient, clear, and action-oriented guidance for supporting the organizational needs of students to help them reach their educational achievement goals and potential. It is an absolutely essential tool in the clinician's toolbox. Dustin E. Sarver, PhD, Associate Professor, Director, Child Health and Development Promotion Fellowship, Department of Psychiatry and Human Behavior, University of Mississippi Medical Center
