Overview
The aim of Child and Adolescent Mental Health in Social Work is to provide a comprehensive text, taking on assessment (biopsychosocial-cultural/spiritual risk and resilience; DSM; standardized assessment scales); goal-setting; and intervention, including medication, evidence-based interventions and the process of evidence-based practice with children and adolescents. The social work context is integrated throughout by: 1) considering the complexities of multiple system levels involved with the occurrence of mental disorders and youth adjustment and recovery; and 2) professional ethics and demeanor when working with impoverished, diverse, and vulnerable youth populations in inter-disciplinary settings.
