Treatment Modalities
Trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy – TF-CBT is used with children and adolescents whohave experienced or witnessed a traumatic event. The goal is to reduce negative symptoms and help the child make senseof what happened. Sessions include both the child and the caregiver. Participation from the caregiver is vital in TF-CBT. Typically, parents are not trained in how to help their child deal with trauma. Participating in sessions allows caregivers toreceive support in parenting, process their own response to the event, and improve their bond with their child.
