Childhood Sexual Abuse & PTSD
According to the CDC, 1 in 3 female rape victims experienced it for the first time between the ages of 11-17. 1 out of 8 of these victims report experiencing sexual abuse before the age of 10. Childhood sexual abuse is an adverse childhood experience that can impact how a person thinks, acts, and feels throughout their entire lifetime. At Charis Behavioral Health, evidence-based treatment models are used to intervene and reduce symptoms of PTSD.

Mental Health Treatment for DFW Kids & Teens Suffering From Trauma
Partial Hospitalization Program+
Our PHP+ day treatment program includes a minimum of 4 hours of therapy daily, two visits weekly with a psychiatrist, weekly individual therapy, and the opportunity to complete schoolwork during program hours. This level of care is designed to provide your child with the opportunity to develop coping skills that can help manage their symptoms and decrease the likelihood of their symptoms escalating to the point of needing inpatient treatment.
Intensive Outpatient Program+
Our IOP+ day program includes a minimum of 3 hours of therapy daily, weekly visits with a psychiatrist, weekly individual therapy, and the opportunity to complete schoolwork during program hours. IOP+ is often a step-down level of care for children transitioning from the PHP+ program; however, a child can also be admitted directly to this level of care.
