Abstract: | Recently attention has turned to family involvement in the treatment of childhood anxiety disorders. Theoretical models and research on parenting behaviour have identified specific targets for family intervention. A growing number of family-based treatment studies targeting these parenting behaviours and interactions suggest that this approach is effective. A review of the targets of treatment and intervention strategies are described in detail. |
