Cognitive-behavioral therapy for bipolar disorders in adolescents: a pilot study.<P></P>Bipolar Disord 2006: 8: 508-515. &#169; Blackwell Munksgaard, 2006 Objectives:&#8194; <P></P>To develop a cognitive behavioral intervention for adolescents with bipolar disorders, test its feasibility and preliminary efficacy. Methods:&#8194; <P></P>Based on existing research, a manualized, individually delivered cognitive behavioral intervention was developed and tested with adolescents with bipolar disorders as an adjunct to pharmacological treatment. Using existing data, baseline characteristics and outcome were compared to a matched group of eight adolescents with bipolar disorders who did not receive any psychosocial intervention. Results:&#8194; <P></P>Preliminary results support the feasibility and efficacy of this manualized cognitive behavioral intervention. Conclusions:&#8194; <P></P>Individually delivered cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) as an adjunct to pharmacological treatment is feasible and associated with symptom improvement in adolescents with bipolar disorders. Randomized controlled studies are needed.",
