The book features detailed advice on: * How to create a therapeutic environment that supports every person in a family * How to reassure an anxious parent * How to engage very young children * How to determine when a parent needs individual therapeutic work and how to engage the parent in this process * The five most effective ways to confront a client and reach a positive outcome * When to let a parent decide on the frequency of counseling visits and when to set an agenda * When to invite other people to participate in therapy * When to refer clients for medication evaluation or neuropsychological testing Goldenthal's integrated model offers a commonsense approach to treating childhood disorders. Addressing problems from early childhood to late adolescence, Helping Children and Families provides an engaging and accessible guide to putting this approach into practice.
