Description: This course will provide an overview of mental disorders most commonly associated with children and adolescents. This seminar is designed for practitioners who work primarily with children, adolescents, and/or their family members. It examines the neurodevelopmental effects of specific categories of diagnoses as well as the potential psychosocial ramifications of being diagnosed with one or more of these disorders. The importance of working with both young persons and their primary caregivers to help them better understand, cope, and manage symptoms of specific disorders are discussed.
