Parents Have a Place in Child Psychotherapy
Family therapy, where parents are included in treatment sessions, is an effective therapy for conduct disorders and substance abuse in children and teens, according to a review examining 10 years worth of research.
The review authors also concluded that family therapy helps reduce behavior problems associated with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and also shows promise in treating anxiety and depression.

“Parents Have a Place in Child Psychotherapy”
I was chief psychologist on a psych unit for ten years 77-86. We did extensive family treatment… including a one way mirror with a consultant. I agree, it is essential for working with kids and teens. Now, in private practice… still do alot of it. When did the question arise about it not being useful? I must have missed that. I believe that I sent you a request to link blog sites a while agon… any thoughts on that?
