“…They are grounded in best practices and empirically supported treatments and are designed to be applied within a framework of critical nonspecific factors known to be relevant to therapeutic outcome (e.g., joining, therapist‐family alliance, and the family’s hopes and expectations for treatment). The nine modules are as follows: (a) psychiatric and related medical conditions, (b) attachment/relationship, (c) family structure, (d) developmental, (e) affect regulation, (f) behavior regulation, (g) cognitive/narrative (h) mastery/self‐efficacy, and (i) community (for further theoretical elaboration, see Wendel et al., 2005). During treatment, the clinician selects the relevant module for intervention based on both individual assessment of psychopathology utilizing the DSM‐IV (American Psychiatric Association, 2000), and family and relational assessment that includes psychosocial modules relevant to the presenting problem.…”
