This authoritative guide has introduced many tens of thousands of clinicians to Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), a leading evidence-based treatment for traumatized children and their parents or caregivers. Preeminent clinical researchers provide a comprehensive framework for assessing posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), other trauma-related symptoms, and traumatic grief in 3- to 18-year-olds; building core coping skills; and directly addressing and making meaning of children’s trauma experiences. Implementation is facilitated by sample scripts, case examples, troubleshooting tips, and reproducible client handouts. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials in a convenient 8 1/2″ x 11″ size. TF-CBT is listed in SAMHSA’s National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices.

The text is considered the “manual” for TF-CBT. The book is easy to understand and gives good insight into TF-CBT. While reading this book alone will not qualify you for certification in TF-CBT, it is an excellent text to get a therapist started or while in training and/or completing the consultation calls for TF-CBT.
