“…Numerous reviews have pointed to the fact that the results from randomized control trials do not translate well to naturalistic clinic settings (Kazdin, 1995;Weisz, Donenberg, Weiss, & Han, 1995). Recent remedies for such lapses in the transfer of knowledge include suggestions regarding research designs, which include groups where patients have been given a choice (Cramer, 1998;Robert-Tissot & Cramer, 1998;Silverman & Altman, 1996) and which generally mirror the naturalistic context in which therapy occurs (Seligman, 1995). Systematic application of these new methological approaches to studying treatment outcomes will undoubtedly change the field of therapy research.…”

From birth, infants grow and develop in their capacity to show feelings, to communicate both verbally and through their gestures and facial expressions, to think, and to relate socially. We now know that early relationships affect how well infants develop, and that problems in an infant's early relationships are linked to later problems in social relationships, emotional health, thinking, and problem solving. Increasingly, parents seem to be recognizing the importance of their relationships with their infants, and when this is not going well, many seek help.

Family‐based services in children's mental health: a research review and synthesis

A systematic review was undertaken of scientifically rigorous studies of family-based services in children's health and mental health. From a pool of over 4000 articles since 1980 in health and mental health that examined either specific family-based interventions for families of children or the processes of involvement, 41 studies were identified that met the methodological criteria for inclusion. These 41 studies encompassed 3 distinct categories: families as recipients of interventions (e.g., family education, support, engagement, empowerment); (b) families as co-therapists; and (c) studies of the processes of involvement (e.g., therapeutic alliance, engagement, empowerment, expectancies, and choice). Too few experimental studies exist to conclude decisively that family-based services improve youth clinical outcomes. However, those studies that have been rigorously examined demonstrate unequivocal improvements in other types of outcomes, such as retention in services, knowledge about mental health issues, self-efficacy, and improved family interactions - all outcomes that are essential ingredients of quality care. Four implications are drawn from this review. (1) Effective family education and support interventions from studies of adults with mental illnesses and from studies of families of high-risk infants exist and can be imported into the field of children's mental health. (2) The range of outcomes that are typically assessed in clinical treatment studies is too narrow to afford an adequate view of the impact of family-based interventions. A broader view of outcomes is needed. (3) The absence of a robust literature on process variables other than therapeutic alliance limits conclusions about how and why interventions are effective. Attention to the processes by which families become involved in services will require a more robust and nuanced range of studies that attend simultaneously to processes of change and to outcome improvement. (4) Linkage of effective family-based interventions to delivery of evidence-based services is likely to amplify the impact of those services and improve outcomes for youth and families.

“…They also raise the question of whether, and how, different treatment modalities may be matched to particular client groups. Cramer and colleagues in Geneva (Robert-Tissot, & Cramer, 1998) are currently researching this question by giving parents the option to choose (between brief psychoanalytic therapy and interactional guidance) rather than using random assignment or professional criteria. The preliminary results suggest that parents are very effective at choosing the treatment most likely to be helpful to them.…”

A B S T R A C T This article describes some of the principles informing a psychoanalytically orientated approach to brief therapy with parents and under-fives. A short account is given of the history of this approach, followed by an extended clinical illustration. The advantages and limitations of the approach are discussed and some of the features that are most typical of this kind of work are described.
