Applying Evidence-Based Trauma Treatments for Childhood Traumatic Separation

Childhood Traumatic Separation is a trauma in which children experience familial separation under sudden, chaotic, frightening circumstances and develop traumatic stress reactions. Unprecedented numbers of families are being separated at our southern border, and many children experience traumatic separation from close family members due to other circumstances. This webinar describes developmental, cultural, and clinical aspects of Childhood Traumatic Separation; similarities and differences between Childhood Traumatic Separation and Childhood Traumatic Grief (CTG); and how evidence-based trauma treatments for CTG can be applied for children with Childhood Traumatic Separation.
