Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools (CBITS) Training and Learning Cohort

The Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools (CBITS) Training and Learning Cohort will train thirty (30) licensed clinicians over a two day training. This cohort will receive ongoing bimonthly coaching and consultation by their trainers February 2022-June 2022. Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Trauma in Schools (CBITS) is a skills-based, group intervention that is aimed at relieving symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), depression, and general anxiety among children exposed to trauma. Children learn skills in relaxation, challenging upsetting thoughts, and social problem solving, and children work on processing traumatic memories and grief. These skills are learned through the use of drawings and through talking in both individual and group settings. Between sessions, children complete assignments and participate in activities that reinforce the skills they’ve learned. CBITS also includes parent and teacher education sessions. The CBITS program has been used most commonly for children in grades six to nine (ages 10 to 15) who have experienced events such as witnessing or being a victim of violence, being in a natural or man-made disaster, being in an accident or house fire, or being physically abused/injured, and who are suffering from moderate to severe levels of PTSD symptoms.
