Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is an evidence-based treatment designed to help children, adolescents, and their families recover from the effects of traumatic experiences.
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) is a trauma-sensitive approach designed to address the psychological impact of experiences such as abuse, violence, or loss. It combines cognitive and behavioral techniques to help clients process trauma, manage distressing thoughts, and develop healthy coping skills. The therapy often involves caregivers to support the child’s recovery, improve communication, and foster safety. Through gradual exposure, clients face traumatic memories in a controlled way, reducing emotional distress. Psychoeducation helps families understand trauma and build resilience, while skill-building focuses on relaxation, emotional regulation, and problem-solving for long-term recovery.
TF-CBT is a structured and compassionate approach that empowers clients to heal from trauma, rebuild their confidence, and lead healthier lives. If considering TF-CBT, seek a qualified therapist with specialized training in trauma-focused care to ensure the best outcomes.

TF-CBT is suitable for children and adolescents who have experienced trauma, as well as their caregivers. It is particularly effective when addressing multiple types of trauma or complex cases.
TF-CBT has been shown to be highly effective in various contexts, including:
