Disruptive kids can trigger our reactivity like no other population. Having a solid treatment plan in place can focus your efforts and anchor you when the going gets tough. Drs. Timothy Bruce and Arthur Jongsma discuss evidence-based treatment planning for Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder in this video, complete with live case vignettes and commentary to help you stay present with this notoriously difficult population.
The video is divided into a set of learning modules that provide structure and pacing to the material. Beginning with a detailed review of the features of both Oppositional Defiant Disorder and Conduct Disorder as outlined in the DSM, Bruce and Jongsma cover key definitions, symptoms, specifiers, and diagnosis criteria. A brief survey of the movement to identify empirically supported treatments (ESTs) provides historical context. They go on to describe a selection of the latest ESTs for each disorder, including Parent Management Training, Cognitive Problem-Solving Skills Training, and the “Incredible Years” program, and their accessible six-step treatment planning process will help you design plans consistent with ESTs and the often-stringent documentation requirements of the field.
In addition to sample treatment plans, you’ll watch clinical vignettes that illustrate these methods in real time. You’ll see demonstrations of parent training approaches, parent management techniques and adolescent anger control, accompanied by expert commentary from Bruce and Jongsma, who compare and contrast approaches as they evaluate what you’ve just seen. A section on relapse prevention—for either child or parent—rounds out the video, for a tight set of tools for optimizing treatment.
If you’re looking for a comprehensive guide to evidence-based treatment planning or a review of ODD/CD, watch this video now. Bruce and Jongsma have provided us with a strong foundation for building empirically sound treatment plans with confidence.
