What is the effect of client feedback in psychological therapy for children and adolescents with mental health problems? A Cochrane Review summary with commentary

BACKGROUND Mental health problems, such as depression and anxiety, in children and adolescents represent a serious and growing concern worldwide. According to the World Health Organization, neuropsychiatric disorders are among the leading causes of disability in the pediatric population. Psychological interventions and psychotherapy can improve anxiety, mood, and conduct disorders in children and adolescents. To monitor patients’ progress and get feedback on the therapeutic process, therapists can use several techniques. Client feedback tools allow the therapist to conduct patienttailored treatments, reducing treatment failures and dropouts. Research shows that such tools can have positive effects on adults’ psychotherapy and treatment of children and adolescents.
