Agency Model

Our agency model includes Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy. This model is an evidence-based treatment method aimed at helping children and adolescents, as well as their parents or caregivers, address the challenges stemming from traumatic experiences such as abuse or neglect. The therapy teaches coping strategies to process the thoughts and emotions linked to the trauma, with a particular emphasis on managing symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
