ABSTRACT

The introduction presents the Intergenerational Trauma Treatment Model as a multidisciplinary brain-based, three-phase approach informed by logic and fundamental mathematics. The ITTM is unique in approaching trauma impact in children by first assessing and addressing the caregiver’s own Primary Negative Belief System, left unresolved since childhood. Phase A delivers the necessary trauma information to enable caregivers to act as co-therapists and active participants in their children’s therapy. Phase B initiates the caregiver’s treatment on their own. In Phase C, the child, with the caregiver present, undergoes therapeutic exercises that are observed in clinic and monitored at home by the caregiver.
