Popis: Family psychoeducation plus skill building is a class of interventions considered to be well-established for youth with mood disorders or emotion dysregulation. Psychoeducational psychotherapy (PEP) is an example of this class of interventions. PEP provides psychoeducation for parents and children, skill building to help children better regulate emotions and behaviors, and strategies for parents to better facilitate school-based interventions, develop specific symptom management techniques, and generate coping strategies for the entire family. Evidence is summarized supporting the efficacy of PEP for reducing rage, overall mood symptom severity, disruptive behavior, and executive functioning deficits in youth. Long-term benefits of PEP are discussed.
