Psychological support and emotional safety: The first task is to establish emotional connection with children and create a safe environment for children to feel support and understanding. Professional psychologists, child psychologists or consultants can help in this regard.
Child-friendly treatment: treatment needs to adapt to children's development stage and cognitive level. Use child-friendly language, games, paintings and stories to help them express their feelings and experiences.
Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT can help children understand their emotions and thoughts and provide skills to deal with negative emotions. Help children change negative thinking patterns through games and role-playing.
Game therapy: children are naturally fond of playing. Game therapy can help them express their emotions, solve problems and experience security and support in the game.
Art therapy: Painting, sculpture, handicrafts and other art forms can help children express feelings that are difficult to express in words, thus alleviating inner pain.
Family therapy: Because family is an important environment for children's life, family therapy can help family members understand and support children and cope with psychological trauma.
Child support group: Children who have experienced similar trauma will be formed into groups, which will be guided by professionals, so that they can share their feelings and support each other in a safe environment.
Relaxation training: teach children deep breathing, meditation, relaxation and other skills to help children gain self-regulation ability when they are nervous.
Medication: In some cases, doctors may consider using drugs to help children control symptoms such as anxiety and depression. But drug therapy is usually a part of comprehensive treatment.
Family support: The support of family members is very important for children's recovery. Establish a good family environment and provide stable emotional support.
No matter which treatment method is adopted, it needs the guidance and support of professional psychologists or mental health experts. For children's psychological trauma, early intervention and appropriate treatment are very important to help them establish positive coping strategies, alleviate their pain and rebuild their confidence.
