Stopped: Begun collaborating with a new community partner and will submit a new study with that partner.
This study will implement a brief Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) intervention for children, the Primary Care Intervention for PTSD (PCIP) delivered through telehealth (computer or smart phone delivery), to 10 Spanish speaking youth and their families. Mixed methods (qualitative and quantitative) randomized pilot feasibility trial (n=10 to treatment and 10 to waitlist control) to refine the intervention, study procedures, and explore effectiveness. Following RE-AIM guidelines, the investigators will assess: Reach: patient participation in intervention delivery (out of all those asked to participate) and retention rate (out of all those who consented to participate and completed at least two intervention sessions) Adoption: patients and their parents/guardians will complete screening and intervention satisfaction ratings. To understand patient experiences with the intervention and to identify and explain positive or negative treatment mechanisms or effects, the investigators will conduct post-intervention semi-structured interviews with the participating patients, their parents/guardians, and with providers. This treatment ranges from 1-3 sessions which last 30-50 minutes per session. The first session will cover psychoeducation about PTSD symptoms in children that can be delivered to the parent or both the parent and child. The first session will also teach the parent and child a breathing technique to combat the physiological impact of PTSD in children. The subsequent sessions will be tailored to meet the needs of the child's most distressing PTSD symptom cluster including hyper arousal, negative changes in cognition and mood, avoidance, re-experiencing. Each session contains coping skills that the parent and child can learn together. There is also material for parents to address behavior problems in youth. This treatment will be delivered via telehealth. All treatment materials have been developed in both Spanish and English.
