Although caregivers have been found to be critical to children’s healing, little has been documented about caregivers’ experiences in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). The current study describes caregivers’ satisfaction with and perceptions of TF-CBT. Caregivers (n = 431) of children/adolescents (n = 496) who completed TF-CBT filled out pre-treatment questionnaires on demographics and perceived aloneness in facing their child’s trauma, and posttreatment questionnaires on treatment satisfaction and perceptions of TF-CBT. Caregivers rated treatment satisfaction an average of 30.59 (SD = 3.15) out of a maximum score of 32 on the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8. The majority of caregivers endorsed that talking about their child’s trauma was more helpful than discussing other current problems, they spoke frequently with their child’s therapist about their child’s trauma, they reported information/skill building in therapy were more helpful than support received, they felt understood by their therapist, treatment helped them more effectively parent, and treatment helped improve their relationship with their child. Perceptions were associated with overall treatment satisfaction. There was a significant reduction in caregivers’ feelings of aloneness in facing their child’s trauma from pre- to posttreatment, which was also related to overall treatment satisfaction. Caregivers reported high satisfaction with TF-CBT, and identified talking about their child’s trauma as more helpful than talking about problems not related to the trauma. Caregivers endorsed benefits of participating in TF-CBT, including feeling less alone in facing their child’s trauma, improved relationship with their child, and more effective parenting skills. These results have important treatment implications.

尽管已经发现看护者对儿童的康复至关重要，但很少有关于看护者在以创伤为重点的认知行为疗法 (TF-CBT) 中的经历的记录。目前的研究描述了看护者对 TF-CBT 的满意度和看法。 儿童/青少年 ( n = 431) 的照顾者 ( n = 431) = 496）完成 TF-CBT 的人填写了关于人口统计学和面对孩子创伤时的孤独感的治疗前问卷，以及关于治疗满意度和对 TF-CBT 看法的治疗后问卷。护理人员对治疗满意度的平均评分为 30.59 (SD = 3.15)，客户满意度问卷 8 的最高得分为 32。大多数看护人赞同谈论孩子的创伤比讨论其他当前问题更有帮助，他们经常与孩子的治疗师谈论孩子的创伤，他们报告说治疗中的信息/技能建设比获得的支持更有帮助，他们感到被理解通过他们的治疗师，治疗帮助他们更有效地为人父母，治疗帮助改善了他们与孩子的关系。感知与整体治疗满意度相关。从治疗前到治疗后，照顾者在面对孩子创伤时的孤独感显着降低，这也与整体治疗满意度有关。看护者对 TF-CBT 表示高度满意，并认为谈论孩子的创伤比谈论与创伤无关的问题更有帮助。照顾者认可参与 TF-CBT 的好处，包括在面对孩子的创伤时感觉不那么孤单、改善与孩子的关系以及更有效的育儿技巧。这些结果具有重要的治疗意义。这也与整体治疗满意度有关。看护者对 TF-CBT 表示高度满意，并认为谈论孩子的创伤比谈论与创伤无关的问题更有帮助。照顾者认可参与 TF-CBT 的好处，包括在面对孩子的创伤时感觉不那么孤单、改善与孩子的关系以及更有效的育儿技巧。这些结果具有重要的治疗意义。这也与整体治疗满意度有关。看护者对 TF-CBT 表示高度满意，并认为谈论孩子的创伤比谈论与创伤无关的问题更有帮助。照顾者认可参与 TF-CBT 的好处，包括在面对孩子的创伤时感觉不那么孤单、改善与孩子的关系以及更有效的育儿技巧。这些结果具有重要的治疗意义。和更有效的育儿技巧。这些结果具有重要的治疗意义。和更有效的育儿技巧。这些结果具有重要的治疗意义。
