Using Evidence-based Interventions with Victims of Relational Aggression

Wow!
The response to the presentation on using Cognitive-Behavioral therapy (CBT) as an intervention for victims of bullying and relational aggression at the Youthlight conference in Las Vegas this past week was outstanding:) The recent surge in research regarding the efficacy of CBT with victims of Trauma fit very nicely with this topic.

We discussed the advantages of quick, effective intervention with this population and featured the bullying scenarios that are included in the Challenge Software Program. The ability to use technology to relate to these children and to give them visual examples of the feelings and behaviors seems to engage them in the process very quickly.
