Mood disorders in children have increased significantly in recent years, which means therapists working with children or families are likely to encounter clients with this presenting issue.

In this video, Dr. Mary A. Fristad demonstrates her evidence-based approach to treating mood disorders in children, psychoeducational psychotherapy. This approach conceptualizes childhood-onset mood disorders within a biopsychosocial context, and treatment involves an integration of cognitive-behavioral therapy and various family systems interventions.

During the therapy demonstration, Dr. Fristad works with a 10-year-old girl who is suffering from anxiety and depression. Dr. Fristad educates and coaches the father while teaching the child how to develop emotion regulation and improve her communication and problem-solving skills.

This video features clients portrayed by actors based on actual case materials.
