S3 E3: Caregiver Involvement in Psychotherapy w/ Dr. David Langer, PhD
How do we get started with finding the most effective and helpful mental health treatment for our children? In this episode, Gerald and Alexis are joined by Dr. David Langer from Suffolk University to discuss a more collaborative approach to understand and begin a wellness journey through therapy.
Dr. Langer, Clinical Psychologist, specializes in child and adolescent psychology; treatment efficacy and effectiveness; psychosocial treatment process; child and adolescent psychopathology; personalizing treatment planning; and shared decision-making.
He explores questions of how do we help children and families when a child is anxious or depressed? More specifically, how do we identify which treatments are the most likely to be effective for anxiety, depression, or any other mental health issue (treatment effectiveness); figure out how those treatments work (treatment process); and adapt treatments to fit the needs, preferences, and values of individual families (treatment personalization)?
Dr. Langer's research, in collaboration with students and colleagues, explores the efficacy and effectiveness of psychosocial treatments for youth psychopathology and the processes through which psychosocial treatments work. With funding from the National Institute of Mental Health, he is currently developing novel approaches to personalize psychosocial treatments for youth by supporting active collaboration between clinicians and families throughout the treatment planning process (i.e., shared decision-making). Of the many practices and processes to investigate, focusing on treatment planning is highly promising because: 1) the treatment planning process is relevant across disorders and other presenting problems across the lifespan, and 2) improved treatment planning provides an opportunity, at the start of treatment, to address treatment-related issues which have been important to the field of clinical child and adolescent psychology for decades (e.g., utilization of evidence-based treatments, patient engagement in clinical services).
The ReidConnect-Ed Podcast is hosted by Alexis Reid and Dr. Gerald Reid, produced by Cyber Sound Studios, and original music is written and recorded by Gerald Reid.
