Trauma Focused Coping/Multimodality Trauma Treatment [1]

Trauma Focused Coping (TFC), also known as Multimodality Trauma Treatment (MMTT), is a school-based, skillsoriented cognitive-behavioral treatment (CBT)  designed for children and adolescents exposed to single-incident trauma. It was the first controlled trauma treatment study in the school setting that addressed PTSD and related symptoms—including depression, anxiety, anger, and locus of control. Initially developed as a peer-mediating group intervention for schools, TFC is adaptable for individual therapy in clinical settings.
