Please Help Me!! A 12-year old boy has experienced neglect and abuse as an infant. As a result, he now suffers from RAD. His family is very supportive and loving, but believes that he requires more support than they alone can give. Select one form of therapy that would be helpful for this boy. Make a clear case for why it would be effective.

Psychotherapy/Counseling. A mental health provider works with the child and parents in a variety of ways, sometimes one-on-one with the child, sometimes with just caretakers, and sometimes in combination, to build skills and reduce problematic patterns of behavior.

Family therapy. This therapy involves working together with the primary caretakers and child to develop ways to interact in healthy ways.

Social Skills Intervention. This therapy teaches the child how to interact more appropriately with other similar–aged children in typical social settings. Parents are usually also involved to help the child to use the skills they learn.

Special education. If a child qualifies, these are school-based programs that help children learn skills to succeed both academically and socially.

Parenting skills classes. In these sessions parents may learn more effective ways of managing their child’s challenges. This can be particularly beneficial as managing discipline for children with RAD can be more difficult.
