Behavioral Health Services with High-Risk Infants and Families offers clinicians numerous detailed and varied chapters that provide direction and insight on providing behavioral health care for infants and their families across numerous settings serving high-risk infants. This book is particularly beneficial and useful and has substantially informed my practice via chapters grounded with up-to-date research and illustrated with over 100 detailed case studies connecting research to practice. This book will surely be on my shelf for the duration of my career as it provides the reader with insights for integrating into the role of behavioral health clinician for high-risk infants and families, as well as, training and teaching new clinicians to enter the field. * Melissa Maye, PhD, Center for Health Policy and Health Services Research, Henry Ford Health System * This text provides a comprehensive review of the importance of addressing perinatal and infant mental health. The chapters offer a historical perspective, reinforce the argument for thinking about the entire family unit when taking care of the high risk infant (starting prenatally, well through post-partum and post NICU care). With each chapter carefully outlining approach and theories to management of PMADs, as a reader, it makes it easier to take an overwhelming topic such as this (often under-resourced in healthcare settings) and start to make headway in the different settings (e.g. fetal, NICU, post-discharge, etc.). The combination of authors across the disciplines of healthcare only enhance the perspectives and takeaways for each setting. * Dr. Dmitry Dukhovny, MD, MPH, Oregon Health and Science University *
