The effect of TF-CBT has been investigated in a study conducted at eight Child and Adolescents’ Mental Health Clinics (BUP) in Norway. The results of the study showed that the method is more effective for severely traumatized children than therapy as usual. Please find information and results from this study here. The first project period lasted from 2012 to 2017. You can find additional information about this project here. The second project period lasted from 2018 to 2021 and you can find more information about this project here. By the end of 2021, NKVTS had contributed to implementation in about 80% of the BUPs in Norway.
In Implementation of TF-CBT 2022-2024 we aim to contribute to implementing TF-CBT to all BUPs of Norway, as well as support the sustainment of TF-CBT in all participating clinics.
