Excerpt
Individual psychotherapy is important for every child
and adolescent psychiatrist to know and understand. Its associated
techniques are also crucial to supervision, conferences, meetings
with educators, community gatherings, and policy-setting agendas.
One hundred years' worth of clinical case reports in the professional
literature attest to the usefulness of child psychotherapy.
