Psychotherapy for adolescents requires an active, engaged therapist who recognizes the importance of involving parents when necessary and is attuned to the presence of transference early on. The therapy needs to be structured into three phases—beginning, middle, and end—each with clear objectives, all within a trauma-informed framework. Special attention also needs to be given at the conclusion of therapy, focusing not only on the adolescent but also on the parent, if involved. This comprehensive approach ensures that both the adolescent and their family receive the support they need throughout the therapeutic process.

In this webinar, Dr. Joan Haliburn will explore the complexities of adolescent psychotherapy, using case studies to illustrate the practical application of key concepts and techniques.
