This course will examine practice theories and techniques for working with children, adolescents, and their parents. This course will provide grounding in the following perspectives: attachment/transactional theory, child and adolescent development, and parenthood, including ethnic/cultural variations in child rearing practices. The interaction between environmental risk factors, protective factors, and developmental factors as they contribute to coping, resiliency, and disorder will also be covered. Major clinical concepts including assessment, treatment planning, work with parents, and developmentally appropriate engagement and intervention techniques will be addressed. This course will be organized in terms of the sequence of development and will cover clinical issues and treatment approaches relevant to each developmental stage.
