What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a practical, home-based therapy to improve child behavior and reduce trauma symptoms without in-person visits.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 50 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The therapy requires consistent weekly sessions and may not work for all families.
