Adolescent psychosocial history
A full adolescent psychosocial history is useful to engage the young person, to assess the level of risk, as well as identifying protective or resilient factors and provide information that will aid the formulation of effective interventions. The HEADS acronym may be helpful in this regard, although questions must always be tailored to stage of development and the right of the young person to not answer should be respected.
