Has TF-CBT helped other kids and families?
A series of randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the superiority of TF-CBT over nondirective play therapy and supportive therapies in children (ages 3 to 14) who have experienced multiple traumas, and those positive results were maintained over time. TF-CBT has proven to be effective in improving PTSD, depression, anxiety, externalizing behaviors, sexualized behaviors, feelings of shame, and mistrust. The parental component of TF-CBT increases the positive effects of TF-CBT for children by improving parents’ own levels of depression, emotional distress about their children’s abuse, support of the child, and parenting practices.
