Individual pediatric interventions such as supportive psychotherapy, behavioral and cognitive behavioral procedures, contingency management approaches, etc., are commonly employed tools when working with chronically ill children. However, there are compelling reasons to provide psychological treatment for this population in the context of other systems, such as their families, schools, and the hospital where they receive care. Although the importance of this biopsychosocial approach emphasizing systemic interventions is intuitive, the literature on this topic is still in its early development stages.

Question 1: Describe a psychological (preferably multi-systemic) intervention for any pediatric chronic medical condition of your interest.
