Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT)
Healing from Trauma with Compassionate, Evidence-Based Care
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is a proven, evidence-based approach to help children, adolescents, and their families process and recover from traumatic experiences. Our team is trained in TF-CBT to guide young people toward healing, resilience, and hope.
What is TF-CBT
TF-CBT is a structured, short-term therapy that combines cognitive-behavioral techniques with trauma-sensitive principles. It is designed to:
• Help clients process traumatic experiences in a safe and supportive environment
• Reduce the emotional and psychological impact of trauma
• Build coping strategies to manage stress and emotional responses
• Strengthen relationships and family dynamics
This therapy is particularly effective for individuals who have experienced:
• Abuse or neglect
• Loss or grief
• Witnessing violence or other traumatic events
• Bullying or harassment
• Natural disasters, accidents, or medical trauma
How TF-CBT works
TF-CBT typically involves:
1. Psychoeducation: Teaching clients and families about trauma, its effects, and the recovery process.
2. Skills Training: Developing relaxation, emotional regulation, and coping strategies to manage distress.
3. Trauma Narration and Processing: Safely exploring and reframing traumatic memories to reduce their emotional intensity.
4. Cognitive Restructuring: Identifying and challenging unhelpful beliefs related to the trauma.
5. Parent and Caregiver Support: Engaging family members to create a supportive environment for healing.
