Choose a problem area experienced by children and/or adolescents that is of interest to you. You can use the ACEs as a guide or you may want to focus on a specific area of mental health or behavioral or environmental problems such as, PTSD, anxiety, depression, ASD, reactive attachment disorder, foster-care, school refusal, etc.
Using information from professional journals, texts, and reliable Internet sources write a brief paper on prevalence, etiology and psychotherapeutic interventions. Based on the problem area you have chosen what promising or evidenced-based practices have been found to be successful in helping children/adolescents with the problem.
