Abstract
The latest research has shown that 1 in 5 children meet criteria for a mental disorder and 1 in 10 children experience significant impairment in the family, school, and community due to a mental disorder (Huang et al., 2005). Unfortunately, only about one quarter of these children needing mental health services receive care (Ringel & Sturm, 2001). Although only a small portion of impaired children receive care, substantial progress has been made in developing effective treatments for this population. However, there are many unresolved issues surrounding child and adolescent psychotherapy.
