What It Captures
The workspace captures trauma-material anchors, explicit thoughts, associated feelings, meanings, partial entries, revisions, and practitioner review markers.
Trauma Thoughts and Feelings Processing
Trauma Thoughts and Feelings Processing is a practitioner-led cognitive processing workspace for TF-CBT. Practitioners use it with a child to make trauma-related thoughts, associated feelings, memory anchors, and emotional meanings explicit enough to guide cognitive processing.

Tool guide

Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
Practitioner And Child Roles
The practitioner frames, guides, and reviews the work. The child contributes thoughts, feelings, and meanings in their own words with support.
Limitations
The tool does not generate adaptive beliefs, classify distortions, diagnose, score risk, or prescribe cognitive processing interventions.
Does the tool generate more adaptive interpretations?
No. It organizes reported thoughts, feelings, memories, and meanings; developing interpretations remains practitioner-led.
Can an entry be partial?
Yes. A feeling without a thought or a thought without a clear anchor can be retained for review.
Does the system identify distorted thinking automatically?
No. Distress-maintaining or self-blaming meanings are recorded only when reported or practitioner-marked.
Can this replace the Trauma Narrative tool?
No. It is a cognitive processing configuration linked to trauma-related thoughts and feelings, not a standalone trauma narrative builder.
