[Multisystemic therapy with substance using adolescents: a clinical and research overview].
Multisystemic therapy (MST) is a family and community-based treatment approach targeting youth with serious clinical problems who are at risk for out-of-home placement (e.g., detention, incarceration, or residential treatment facility). Based on an extensive body of controlled clinical research, MST has been identified as an effective treatment of youth antisocial behavior, including substance abuse.
