This book offers a definitive and comprehensive resource for treating children and adolescents, using the unique approach from Stanford led by Dr. Hans Steiner. This approach is characterized by the principles of developmental psychopathology with an emphasis on integrated treatment, tied to both pediatric and psychiatric innovation. Steiner and his team base their work on interpersonal dynamics, using a range of psychotherapy and pharmacology, innovative environmental manipulation, epidemiology regarding risk and protective factors, and an approach to disorders as a pathogenic process, a cluster of symptoms in a psychosocial personal context.
