There is increased emphasis on DEI, social determinants of health, complementary modalities, and transdiagnostic approaches for children and adolescents. New and updated modalities include acceptance and commitment therapy, trauma-focused, schema-focused and mindfulness-based CBT; EMDR/CBT for children; operant conditioning behavioral plans; social rhythm therapy; digital therapeutics, harm reduction and trauma-informed substance use care; and dialectical behavioral therapy treatment stages, and techniques.
