Description
Psychotherapeutic intervention with children and families requires a nuanced understanding of child development and psychopathology, as well as the dynamics of the individual child, the parent-child dyad and the larger family unit and the family?s diverse background. This course will provide students with conceptual and technical frameworks in which to choose and carry out such interventions from an array of treatment perspectives. It will also enable students to analyze empirical literature related to interventions with children. Prerequisite: PSY 5780.
