ABSTRACT
Children as young as seven or eight years of age are able to benefit from CBT (Cartwright-Hatton et al., 2004). Further, Stallard (2005) has argued that children as young as five may also benefit from CBT, given adaptations to content and presentation (Doherr et al., 2005; Flavell et al., 2001; Wellman et al., 1996). As an example, Tolin (2001) reported the use of techniques such as externalising OCD, bibliotherapy and parental involvement in the treatment of a five-year-old child with OCD.
