The Great Lakes Mental Health Technology Transfer Center will host a virtual Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) training and 12 consultation calls (dates to be determined) for 24 behavioral health professionals and school mental health counselors in HHS Region 5 (Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin).
TF-CBT is an evidence-based treatment for children and adolescents from 3 to 18 years old. TF-CBT aims to help children, adolescents, and their caregivers overcome adverse events such as sexual abuse, domestic violence, child maltreatment, discrimination, and other types of traumatic experiences. It is a components-based treatment model that incorporates trauma-sensitive interventions with cognitive behavioral, family, and humanistic principles and techniques. The presenter will provide strategies and adaptations that are culturally responsive for diverse communities.
