Discussion: Psychotherapeutic Approaches to Group Therapy with Children and Adolescents

To prepare:

• Read the case study I am Feeling Like I’m Going Crazy
• 
  
• Post an explanation of the most likely DSM-5 diagnosis for the client in the case study.

Be sure to link those behaviors to the criteria in the DSM-5. Then, explain group therapeutic approaches you might use with this client. 

Explain expected outcomes for the client based on these therapeutic approaches. 

Finally consider legal and ethical implications of counseling children and adolescent clients with psychiatric disorders. 

Support your approach with evidence-based literature with at least three references no more than five years old .
