MATCH-ADTC (Modular Approach to Therapy for Children with Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, or Conduct Problems) is an evidence-based treatment designed for children ages 6 – 15.  This treatment process can be applied to all ages.  Unlike most treatment approaches that focus on single disorders, MATCH is designed for multiple disorders and problems, including anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress, as well as disruptive conduct such as the problems associated with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or Oppositional Defiant Disorder).  MATCH was developed by Bruce Chorpita, Ph.D. and John Weisz, Ph.D., ABPP. The model synthesizes decades of empirically based research on evidence-based treatments and strategies.  Clinicians trained in this evidence-based approach can treat over 70% of typical problems presented in outpatient clinics. MATCH provides Clients with a way to better understand their challenges and tools to help manage their difficulties and improve their functioning.

​

MATCH ADTC is designed as a  structured,  consistent,  family-focused, and, strength-based approach to therapies in addressing child & adolescent emotional and behavioral problems related to Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, and, Conduct.  Elizabeth Counseling PLLC incorporates learning self-advocacy.
