Description
Self-harming behaviors in adolescents are often challenging for clinicians to treat. The last 10 years have seen an increase in well-conducted studies on therapeutic approaches to target self-harming behaviors and a couple of meta-analyses have underlined the efficacy of psychotherapeutic interventions. This talk will provide an overview about existing psychotherapeutic interventions to adress self-harming behaviors and will also provide an insight in new "non-psychotherapeutic" approaches.
Learning Objectives
A. To understand different psychotherapeutic treatment approaches in self-harm in adolescents
B. To be able to differentiate the evidence for different interventions for self-harm
C. To gain knowledge about non talk-oriented therapeutic interventions for self-harm in adolescents
