PSYC 542 - Child and Adolescent Psychotherapy: Theory and Practice(3 credits)
Prerequisite: Matriculation in MA program in clinical psychology or consent of instructor
This course is designed for graduate students in clinical psychology to develop effective therapeutic techniques for working with young children and early adolescents. The course will examine child psychopathology from a developmental perspective. From this model, various approaches (humanistic, behavioral, cognitive, psychodynamic and constructivist/systems) to child therapy will be applied and evaluated. No preferred treatment modality will be espoused, rather students will be expected to make use of a combination of techniques and integrate various forms of psychotherapy. Moreover, contextual factors related to diversity will be integrated throughout the course. Offered annually.
