“…It is important for staff to view disruptive behavior as a means by which the child communicates, so that the behavior may eventually be understood by both the staff and the patient. While disturbed children frequently express themselves through behavior rather than words, the form, diffuseness, and intensity of the aggressive action needs to be modified before such communication becomes manageable within the treatment program (Rossman & Knesper, 1976).…”

In a variety of treatment settings, a therapeutic milieu provides intensive psychotherapeutic and psychoeducational experiences for disturbed children and young adolescents. It is generally agreed that effective psychosocial treatment requires a developmentally based treatment approach, collaborative parental involvement, and provision for ongoing staff support and training. In such settings, the treatment plan for each child reflects developmental, psychosocial, biological, cognitive, and neurointegrative aspects of the child's problems and identifies specific roles for psychotherapists, caseworkers, educators, occupational and recreational therapists, and parents (Alt, 1961; Pfeffer, 1979; Redl, 1959; Trieschman, 1969).
