Description: "Since the publication of Cohen et al.'s authoritative Treating Trauma and Traumatic Grief in Children and Adolescents, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) has become the leading empirically supported treatment for children exposed to traumatic life events. This book featuring a wealth of clinical examples describes ways that TF-CBT is being applied in a range of contexts and with diverse populations. Experienced clinicians provide specific recommendations for effectively implementing the approach in schools, foster care, and residential and international settings; incorporating play strategically; and tailoring TF-CBT for adolescents with complex trauma, children with developmental challenges, military families, and Latino and Native American children"--

"The concept for this book grew out of the dramatic growth in the utilization of TF-CBT with children of all ages, from diverse cultures and settings. The chapters highlight the individual tailoring of TF-CBT to optimally serve children's and adolescents' specialized needs. A unifying theme throughout this book is the importance of building and maintaining a positive, trusting and collaborative therapeutic relationship. In sum, the chapters and the many case examples bring to life the unique aspects of utilizing TF-CBT with children at different developmental stages, from different cultural backgrounds and in diverse settings in the United States and around the world"--
