Overview:
TF-CBT Is a components-based model of psychotherapy that addresses the unique needs of children with PTSD symptoms, depression, behavior problems, and other difficulties related to traumatic life experiences. Trauma focused cognitive behavioral therapy is a short-term treatment approach that can work in as few as 12 sessions. It also may be provided for longer periods of time depending on the child’s and family’s needs. Individual sessions for the child and for the parents or caregivers, as well as joint parent-child sessions, are part of the treatment. As with any therapy, forming a therapeutic relationship with the child and parent is critical to TF-CBT.

For Adults: 
Trauma-Focused CBT is a therapy that directly addresses the impact of traumatic events. There are three main versions of trauma-focused CBT that have been proven in scientific studies to be effective for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
