The Collaborative Problem Solving® (CPS) approach has demonstrated effectiveness with children and adolescents with a wide range of social, emotional, and behavioral challenges across a variety of different settings: from families, schools, mentoring organizations and foster care agencies to therapeutic programs such as inpatient psychiatry units, residential treatment, and juvenile detention facilities. This evidence based, strengths-based, neurobiologically-grounded approach has an overarching philosophy, that challenging kids lack the skill to do well, not the will to do well.  In other words, these challenges are best understood as the byproduct of lagging thinking skills (rather than, for example, as attention-seeking, manipulative, limit-testing, or a sign of poor motivation); and therefore, these challenges are best addressed by teaching children the skills they lack (rather than through reward and punishment programs and intensive imposition of adult will).
