Abstract
This paper presents a review of the literature on planned brief psychotherapy with children, adolescents, and their families. Existing models of therapy are described and categorized by their most prominent theoretical foundations and methods of intervention into psychodynamic, crisis, family systems, and guidance or educational. Available outcome data are critically discussed. Recommendations for practice are made, based on clinical experience and published research.
