Treating Trauma in Children and Adolescents (Audio cassette)

Informative and practical, this audiotape helps practitioners work more effectively with children who have suffered from some form of severe trauma (sexual abuse, death of a parent, etc.) and exhibit PTSD symptoms. Dr. Cohen defines key terms and offers professionals a cognitive-behavioral treatment model for working with the children and their parents. She helps the professional identify the cognitive patterns and distortions that develop after a trauma so they can help the child and parent overcome false beliefs, such as blaming oneself for the trauma that has occurred. In an empathetic and engaging manner, Dr. Cohen offers professionals a resource for working with different forms of trauma.
