This report examines my experience as a Master of Social Work student during my field practicum placement with the Youth Community Counselling Program (YCC), with Mental Health and Addiction Services, Saskatoon, Sk. The purpose of this practicum was to gain graduate level experience and knowledge in providing services to youth and families experiencing disordered eating, and in providing therapy to families accessing services through Mental Health and Addiction Services. I provided individual counselling and family-based treatment, participated in the development of a research project, and worked as part of an interdisciplinary team. This report presents my learning through the integration of theory and social work practice. I explore the literature on evidence-based practice for working with youth and their families, with a focus on counselling approaches incorporating narrative therapy, structural family therapy, attachment theory, family systems theory, and family-based treatment. I also discuss the relationship between my ideological views, values, ethics and self-reflection in supporting young people and their families. The report concludes with discussion of my learning outcomes, intersectional analysis, and ethical considerations.
