    Analysis Of Psychotherapy

    A separate juvenile justice system was established in the United States with the goal of diverting youthful offenders from the destructive punishments of criminal courts and encouraging rehabilitation.

Among treatment programs there exists two broad approaches–family and individual therapy.…
