Children with bipolar disorder (BD) have considerable impairments in school, peer and family functioning and high rates of illness comorbidity. 1 With age, their risk increases for suicide attempts, hospitalisation, substance abuse and medical complications. Pharmacotherapy is usually the first-line treatment for young people with BD, but paediatric patients may be less treatment-responsive than adults. 2 Moreover, side effects (eg, weight gain) from commonly used mood stabilising medications can compromise children’s long-term health status. Three psychosocial interventions given adjunctively with medications have been tested and found effective in stabilising mood symptoms among bipolar children and adolescents: multifamily psychoeducation groups, 3 dialectical behaviour therapy 4 and family-focused therapy. 5
