Child Trauma and Effects Libby Bergman, LICSW Family Enhancement Center 4826 Chicago Avenue, Suite 105 Minneapolis, MN (612)

Family Enhancement Center Founding of the Center 17 years ago. Goals of Center. Expert Staff who have training specific to work with children of all ages. 3 to 18 years old. Intensive services for children and their families. Committed to preventing future episodes of abuse. Specialization in sexual abuse treatment and prevention.

Understanding Child Trauma Trauma can manifest in multiple ways. Three main areas of effect. 1. Emotional Regulation 2. Learning 3. Relational Skills

What is Emotional Regulation?

Emotional Regulation Rest Something Novel Mild Challenge Stress Danger Terror Fear Alarm Alert Calm

Emotional Regulation Symptoms you may see: Running Away Withdrawal Oppositionality Arguing Tantrums Physical Aggression Emotional Arousal Results in Flight or Fight: Talking Solutions – Reasoning and Rewards or Punishments -Do Not Work when a person is in a flight or fight emotional mode. Traditional cognitive behavioral therapy may not be helpful.

Struggles with emotional regulation Reactive to peers Aggressive Over stimulated Environmental changes that helped him. Case Example Cal is a 11 year old male child who has been in care since age 7. Serious physical and sexual abuse and neglect. Sensory system out of sync.

Learning Opportunities Rest Something Novel Mild Challenge Stress Danger Terror Fear Alarm Alert Calm Where Learning is optimal

Learning Problems Symptoms you may see: Tuning Out Daydreaming Not Paying Attention Disruptive Behaviors Problems Concentrating Anger and Frustration Hopelessness Lack of Time in the optimal Learning States results in: Gaps in learning. Belief in not being able to learn. Diagnosis of ADHD or ADD Diagnosis of Developmental Delays

Learning Problems IQ tested in borderline range Diagnosed with ADHD Power struggles with homework. Environmental changes tried. Case Example Cal is a 11 year old male child who has been in care since age 7. Serious physical and sexual abuse and neglect. Missing learning opportunities.

Relational Effects Intimacy Barrier Formal Casual Interaction Friendship Intimacy Degree of Relational Damage IN Out

Relational Effects Symptoms you may see: Unlikable Child Poor Social Skills Inability to Share Controlling Behaviors Social Withdrawal No Friends Can’t Keep Friends Negative Peer Group Relational Effects Reacts with defensiveness when he/she feels someone is crossing intimacy barrier. Expects rejection from others. Attempts to control intimacy by keeping others at a distance or controlling interactions to decrease anxiety.

Relational Issues Very immature in his expressions of relationship skills. Anxiety increased when placement in adoptive home. Works best in a home where affection is not expressed directly. Case Example Cal is a 11 year old male child who has been in care since age 7. Serious physical and sexual abuse and neglect. Attachment Disrupted Serious anxiety related to relationships.

Solutions To believe that one hour of weekly individual therapy can treat the effects of years of abuse is unrealistic. Inclusion of parent or caregiver is required. Parent or caregiver is part of treatment team – multiple interventions per week are needed. Multiple treatment modes can assist children towards recovery.
