Interventions/Control_1

TF-CBT is a proven psychotherapy that involves 8 to 18 weekly 80- to 90-minute sessions with a practitioner (hereinafter referred to as the therapist). The program consists of child sessions, parent sessions, and joint parent-child sessions; however, until the middle of the program, sessions are conducted separately for parents and children (child sessions and parent sessions), and toward the end, the child and parent come together in joint sessions to share what they have learned and the outcomes achieved through the program. The frequency of sessions is adjusted flexibly to suit each individual case.

Interventions/Control_2

Patients are placed on a waiting list for TF-CBT and, while receiving standard treatment such as supportive psychotherapy, await their turn to be transferred to the treatment group.
