ABSTRACT

Adolescence is a vulnerable period for mental health. It is not easy to make a precise diagnosis during this period, as young people may present attenuated forms of psychiatric pathology, or on the contrary, a combination of several types of difficulties. Adopting a transdiagnostic and dimensional approach, based on clinical stages, and thus proposing interventions adapted to the severity of symptoms, is pertinent. As emotional dysregulation lies at the heart of many pathologies, it is a prime target for early intervention. Although interventions for adolescents are still underdeveloped, certain approaches derived from cognitive-behavioral therapies and the psychodynamic current have been adapted for adolescents and appear promising.
