Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)

Make an Appointment

TF-CBT is an evidence-based treatment for children and adolescents, and their caregivers, to deal with the negative impact of traumatic events, such as witnessing violence, experiencing sexual or physical abuse, an unexpected death, or a natural disaster. It incorporates a trauma-sensitive model and interventions with cognitive behavioral, family and humanistic techniques.  
​
TF-CBT teachers children and their caregivers how their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are all connected. Understanding the connections offers new ways to cope with problems and help caretakers in supporting their children. 

TF-CBT usually lasts 12-18 weeks. Sessions may be individual for the child, individual with parents or joint together with parent and child.

  • PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder)
  • Fear
  • Anxiety
  • Depression
  • Traumatic Grief and Loss
