CC 673 - Assessment and Treatment of Trauma: Children and Adolescents
Prerequisite(s): CC 670 or CC 640 . This course is designed to provide students with knowledge and basic skills in methods of assessment and treatment of traumatized children and adolescents. Emphasis is placed on contextual factors that confer vulnerability or resilience to trauma and that may shape how traumatic events and reactions are interpreted by children and adolescents. The impact of trauma on the developing brain is examined through both a cognitive and affective lens and the evaluation of age-appropriate developmental mastery is explored for the purpose of supporting ongoing healthy development. Evidence-based individual, family, group, school-based and post-disaster interventions are explored and applied. (3 credits)
