Lila is a 10-year-old girl referred to you by a school counselor due to misbehavior in
school and decreased academic performance that both have become serious problems
over the past 3 months. Your trauma assessment revealed that she had been in a serious
car crash about three years ago, suffering some minor physical injuries. Neither she nor
her parents report any other traumatic events. Her mother reported no difficulties
related to the car crash and Lila's score on a standardized measure of PTSD symptoms
was in the low normal range. Is Lila a good treatment candidate for TF-CBT and why?
Yes, she probably is avoiding all thoughts and feelings related to the car crash, and
treatment is needed.
No, she does not have clinically significant trauma-related problems that require
trauma-focused treatment.
