This is a therapy program for children and adolescents from 3 to 18 years old who are victims of traumatic events, such as physical and/or sexual abuse, accidents, violence, and environmental catastrophes, as well as their families. The objective is to reduce the negative effects derived from the traumatic event, such as post-traumatic stress, depression, anxiety, and fear, and to promote the processing of trauma and the development of symptom management skills among parents and children.
The program integrates cognitive behavioral approaches into traditional therapy modalities for the treatment of child victims of abuse to stimulate communication about trauma in individual and family sessions lasting 12 to 18 weeks.
