Treating Symptoms of Trauma in Children and Teenagers (2022 Children's Mental Health Report) Child Mind Institute

Description:

The 2022 Children’s Mental Health Report looks at the effects of psychological trauma on kids and the most promising ways to treat it. Several key questions are explored, including:

  • What are the most common definitions of trauma?
  • How can trauma affect children and teenagers?
  • What is the evidence base for treatments aimed at mitigating the impacts of trauma?

And in a special supplement, we report the results of a national survey of parents’ perspectives on trauma and how it has affected their own children and families.
