A Relationship-Based Model of Executive Functioning
Using Clinical Best Practices for Counseling Children and Adolescents
Why should mental health therapists double as experts on executive functioning skills? Simple: understanding these skills is like having a key to unlock a deeper understanding of their clients and their challenges. Especially when it comes to children and teenagers, this knowledge is not just a nice-to-have, it's a must-have.
Think of it this way; understanding executive functioning skills is like peering into the intricate gears of a clock, revealing how cognitive and emotional processes are intertwined. This insight doesn't just paint a clearer picture of the challenges a client might face, it also helps us understand how these difficulties might show up in their day-to-day activities - at school, at home, or when hanging out with friends.
Many mental health concerns, particularly in young clients, are tethered to poor executive functioning. Think: difficulties with impulse control, staying organized, or managing emotions. Understanding executive functioning skills helps therapists spot specific deficits that might be contributing to the bigger picture of a client's mental health. This could be something like anxiety, ADHD, or depression.
But, this isn't just about understanding; it's also about action. Therapists with expertise in this area can design interventions that tackle these issues head-on and build a more accurate diagnosis, mapping out a treatment plan that’s specific and targeted.
Executive functioning skills are like a plant that continues to grow and develop well into young adulthood. They're the building blocks for successful transitions into independence and adulthood. Therapists who understand this can help prepare their clients for the rigors of adult life, everything from managing responsibilities and making decisions, to maintaining healthy relationships.
