Child Therapy
Integrative child therapy combined with Trauma treatment
The Adverse Childhood Experience Study (ACE Study), which was an international survey of over 17,000 individuals, identified negative childhood experiences. These "traumatic" experiences were found to have a pernicious impact on psychological, physical, neurobiological and relational functioning.
In the treatment of children and adolescents, a thorough assessment probes for possible traumatic events.
Complaints are understood from this genesis.
