Abstract
Pediatric anxiety and depression rates have doubled during the pandemic, with 1 in 4 youth experiencing elevated depression symptoms and 1 in 5 experiencing elevated anxiety symptoms, resulting in the increased need for specialized and intensive services (Racine et al., 2021). Research has demonstrated that long-term outcomes for pediatric anxiety and depression are predicted not only by the presentation of symptoms and symptom severity but also by family involvement. Utilizing different methods for family engagement including a diagnostic-specific educational program, family participation in therapeutic interventions and utilization of virtual platforms can improve the outcomes of patients in higher levels of care (LOC) in multiple measures.
