Standardized Individual Therapy: A Contradiction in Terms
This article explores a paradox that was identified during an ethnographic study of two Danish therapeutic residential institutions for children with emotional and behavioural problems.

Breakdown of care: The case of Danish teenage placements
This article analyses the breakdown of teenage placements in Denmark from survey data on 227 teenagers placed in care during 2004.

These are factors related to (i) the teenager, (ii) the parents, (iii) the care environment and (iv) the casework process. Results show that 26 per cent of the teenagers in the study experienced placement breakdow…
