This course focuses on the development of the knowledge and practical skills necessary to implement psychotherapeutic interventions with children and adolescents. The three core dimensions of the course involve: 1) understanding developmental theory and using a developmentally-grounded perspective to conceptualize children and adolescents, 2) understanding how the integration of various theoretical orientations can inform the conceptualization of children and adolescents, and 3) forming a working knowledge base of evidence-based interventions for children and adolescents that can be appropriately selected and implemented with children and adolescents.
