Abstract
In this chapter I outline a cognitive-behavioral framework for understanding disorders of friendship. I explain how specific patterns of thinking and behavior create barriers to friendship satisfaction. I also offer a developmental perspective, detailing the progression of cognitive organization that influences later friendship patterns. Finally, I describe interventions targeted at cognitive and behavioral blocks to friendship. The emphasis in the chapter is on understanding long-term, chronic difficulties with friendship.
