Evidence-based, developmentally sensitive therapy for children and teens who have experienced accidents, medical procedures, violence, bullying, loss, sudden changes, or other frightening and overwhelming events. Treatment is tailored to the child's age, history, and needs and may include trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, play-based trauma interventions, coping skills, carefully planned exposure to reminders, parent-focused support, and coordination with schools, pediatricians, or other providers. Suitable for younger children, preteens, and teens experiencing intrusive memories, nightmares, avoidance, irritability, emotional outbursts, or changes in sleep, appetite, or school performance. Parents and caregivers are closely involved in supporting safety, routines, and coping skills at home.
