trials over the decades, intervention researchers have produced numerous manual - guided, evidence - based treatments (EBTs) for depression, anxiety, and conduct in youth.2 Unfortunately, these treatments have not been incorporated into most everyday

designed for single or homogeneous clusters of disorders, developed and tested with recruited youths who differ
from patients seen in everyday
clinical practice, and involve a predetermined sequence of prescribed session contents, limiting their flexibility.3 - 8 Indeed,
trials testing these protocols against usual care for young patients in
clinical practice have produced mixed findings, with EBTs often failing to outperform usual care.7, 9
