Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is an evidence-based treatment developed to support children and their families who are experiencing psychological distress following a traumatic event(s). TF-CBT is an effective intervention that involves caregivers in the treatment process and successfully resolves a broad range of difficulties associated with trauma exposure.

Target audience: Psychologists, Counselors, Social Workers, & School Mental Health Clinicians. This presentation is designed to enhance clinicians’ familiarity from a basic level of understanding of CBT to an intermediate level of familiarity with Trauma-Focused CBT.
