PAC405 Child Psychology
This course presents items unique to counseling children and understanding different drivers concerning juvenile addiction psychology. The material covered takes a multidimensional four-part approach to counseling children. This approach: 1) capitalizes on the relationships children build with parents, teachers, and other adults; 2) looks at children's developmental processes; 3) examines multicultural influences upon them; and 4) takes into consideration the variety of intervention models available. The course examines four major approaches to child therapy: psychodynamic, child-centered, behavioral/cognitive-behavioral, and family systems. The course brings everything together through a case study that shows the multidimensional approach in action.
