abstract="The treatment of adolescents with comorbid depression and conduct problems poses significant challenges to the clinician. These patients, in contrast to those who present for depression alone, are more prone to be at risk for suicide, to be involved in alcohol and drug abuse, to have disturbed families, and to be difficult to engage in the process of therapy. In addition, these adolescents often enter therapy in the aftermath of a crisis, and are at risk for repeated crises throughout treatment. Two case illustrations of crisis intervention with depressed adolescents who have comorbid conduct problems are presented. The therapist, who works out of a cognitive-behavioral perspective, demonstrates the importance of dealing directly, and openly with the crisis situation from the outset. Further, transcript material from each case highlights how the therapist can use confrontation, as well as Socratic questioning, to stimulate resistant adolescent patients into active engagement in the process of therapy.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
