Reviewer Notes
The overwhelming presence of one lead author in most of the references in an article is always a bit of a red flag, and while I don't think there is an underlying problem in this case, the combination of that and a reliance on primary academic literature without much in the way of the secondary literature that does exist... well, let's just say that including some secondary literature to help us get a broad overview about how to weight parts of the presentation would create a better article. --j⚛e deckertalk 00:02, 29 May 2014 (UTC)
Agree! Trauma focused CBT applies to adults as well as children. The lead author has referenced an article detailing the application of this method to children, yet this method was first established in adults. This really needs to be re-written! NGanon (talk) 21:32, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
Apologies, this method was developed for children and adolescents but can also be used for adults (see ref below). The evidence section of the article needs to be richer and should reference systematic reviews and meta analysis , which are many on this topic. Cusack, K., Jonas, D. E., Forneris, C. A., Wines, C., Sonis, J., Middleton, J. C., ... & Gaynes, B. N. (2016). Psychological treatments for adults with posttraumatic stress disorder: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Clinical psychology review, 43, 128-141

Potential Additions to "Description" and "Evaluation of Effectiveness" Sections
In the “Description” section, I think it would be helpful to include a couple of sentences that describe exactly what cognitive-behavioral therapy is, so that the idea of a type of CBT that is trauma-based is clearer. Below is a possible addition:
Cognitive-behavioral therapy focuses on the ways in which a person’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected and how they affect one another.[1] During CBT, the therapist and client develop goals together, and the therapist aims to help the client realize that he or she is able to focus on positive thoughts and behaviors.[1]
Also, the “Evaluation of Effectiveness” section relies largely on evidence from different articles and studies by the same authors and researchers, which makes the section seem less credible. I would suggest adding the following sentences to this section to improve the range of sources:
Based on a systematic review of different studies researching effective interventions for PTSD, TF-CBT is one of two treatments for chronic PTSD that has the strongest evidence base.[2] The review of 15 different randomized control trials supports the efficacy of TF-CBT as a treatment for PTSD.[2] TF-CBT has received the most empirical support for the treatment of childhood PTSD among trauma-focused psychotherapies, and TF-CBT is the most widely used and best researched CBT design for PTSD.[3] TF-CBT has the potential to be particularly helpful for children because it was designed specifically for children with PTSD.[3]

- I agree that the description section could be expanded. In addition to laying the general CBT foundations, I noticed that the second sentence (citation #10) is referencing a different therapy modality. I think that sentenced should be removed. Hhmilius (talk) 17:18, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

The opening says that TFCBT targets the needs of children and adolescents with PTSD. This is inconsistent with what is in the cochrane review[1] Notgain (talk) 13:56, 10 July 2019 (UTC)
Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy
In my experience, the majority of Wikipedia pages with a similar title would choose to include the hyphen in the compound modifier, though I'm sure there is policy around cases where this is not appropriate.
Specifically, in English, thing-focused is a construction where the hyphen would be more typical than not.
This should at least be considered. — MaxEnt 19:36, 14 April 2020 (UTC)
- I looking into this a bit further, and most hits returned by Google do indeed carry the hyphen. I also see "trauma-informed cognitive behavioral therapy" and this is likely a more progressive name now in slow ascent. In my experience, many of these original names that were too on-the-nose for their own good have likewise given way.
- Redirect from trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy created, so that this proposed link name can be used now. But this is not my dog, and I doubt I'll return to contribute beyond dropping this initial comment. — MaxEnt 19:47, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Expanding the patient demographics TF-CBT has been used to treat
I found a review article stating some additional patient groups TF-CBT has been used in. In addition to providing more detail to the article, I believe its important to mention TF-CBT and its relevance for complex trauma cases-as this is becoming a more popular topic within this domain. I plan to insert that into the first overview paragraph of the article. Hhmilius (talk) 17:22, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
