Description - Adolescents and Their Families: An Introduction to Assessment and Intervention by Terry S Trepper

The author introduces and integrates adolescent developmental themes and family system theory into a coherent assessment and intervention model. Viewing the adolescent as active in shaping the family interactions as much as the family is influential in shaping the adolescent's behaviour, he takes a pragmatic approach for therapy, emphasizing what best explains the clinical phenomena and what works best for change. To this end, the process of evaluation and intervention of adolescents and their families is stressed with typical therapeutic dilemmas. This practical book is organized to take the reader through the first evaluation interview, through the planning of intervention strateies, and through the beginning, middle and termination phases of treatment. Case examples are used to bring the text to life, highlighting conceptual discussions.
