Description:

This course is designed to help the student develop advanced knowledge and skills for intervention with children, adolescents, and their families. The course begins with an overview of the most prevalent treatment approaches used with this client population (e.g. cognitive-behavioral, play therapy, reality therapy, family therapy, in-home therapy). The course will then examine the application of these intervention strategies with different types of problems experienced by children, adolescents, and their families (e.g. attachment/bonding, problem solving/coping skills, stress, anger management). Ethical principles of practice with these client systems will be addressed. Attention will also be given to the role human diversity plays in the development and implementation of an intervention plan. Throughout the course the renewed interest in prevention of abuse, neglect, and dependency will be highlighted.
