Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is an empirically supported psychotherapy model for treating traumatized children and adolescents. The effectiveness of this approach is enhanced by integrating creative, developmentally appropriate interventions so that children will engage in treatment. This two-day training will provide an overview of TF-CBT and will present creative interventions for the 8 components of TF-CBT: psychoeducation, relaxation, affective modulation, cognitive processing, trauma narrative, in vivo mastery, conjoint child-parent sessions, and enhancing safety.
