Children exposed to trauma can develop reactions that affect their daily lives. Our Mental Health Clinician consults with the multidisciplinary team and provides Child and Family Traumatic Stress Intervention (CFTSI) for children aged 7-18 and their caregivers.
CFTSI is a brief, early intervention that can help children and their caregivers reduce traumatic stress symptoms; improve emotional support through increased caregiver-child communication; teach and practice skills to cope with trauma reactions; identify and address practical needs such as safety and housing; and assess the need for longer-term support.
CFTSI services are offered on-site in Woburn at no cost to families served by the Middlesex CAC.
