Abstract
Internalizing disorders occur frequently during childhood and adolescence. The most common internalizing disorders are depressive and anxiety disorders. Individual cognitive‐behavioral therapy is the most commonly used psychotherapy treatment for these conditions; however, this approach fails to account for the developmental stages of youth and the influence of the family environment on internalizing disorders. Three systemic family therapy approaches—cognitive‐behavioral family therapy, attachment‐based family therapy, and structural family therapy—address the limitation of individual cognitive‐behavioral therapy. In this chapter, a review of each of these systemic family therapy approaches is provided, along with an explanation of how each of these approaches would conceptualize and treat internalizing disorders under diverse circumstances in childhood and adolescence. Additionally, the research using these three approaches to treat internalizing disorders is reviewed, and the implications and limitations of this research are discussed.
