PP 8712 - Adolescent Psychotherapy
This course provides an overview of theory and techniques in adolescent psychotherapy. While the overall orientation views adolescent problems within a context of the family system, the course focuses on a range of interventions and approaches including expressive therapies, problem-focused cognitive and behavioral strategies, and the interface of group work, individual treatment, and family therapy. Attention is given to the relation of developmental tasks and treatment strategies, as well as the cultural frameworks that impact interventions. Legal and ethical issues, as well as empirically validated treatments, are integrated into the course. (3 credit hours)
