Felix is a 15-year-old, Spanish-English bilingual young man. He learned English when he was 11 years old.
He is receiving TF-CBT for physical abuse that happened when he was 4 and living in El Salvador. Which
statement is most accurate about how to work with Felix in the Affective Identification and Regulation
module?
a. The therapist should ask Felix to list trauma-related emotion words in both English and Spanish.
b. It will be very difficult for a therapist who is not bilingual to provide appropriate services to Felix.
c. Since Felix is bilingual, there is no real reason to modify the typical activities of this module.
d. Use non-verbal methods of affect expression to convey emotions, like dance or doll play.
e. Encourage caregiver involvement in sessions to help provide context for Felix's difficulties in verbal
emotion expression. - a. The therapist should ask Felix to list trauma-related emotion words in
both English and Spanish.
Because Felix "remembered" his trauma before he learned English, he may have more words for what
happened to him in his native Spanish. Asking him Spanish emotion names, that he can they try to
translate for you, may help you gain a greater understanding of his emotional experience.
When children find it hard to discuss their own feelings, it is often helpful to:
a. Temporarily skip over this technique and return to it later in treatment
b. Discuss the trauma, where feelings are likely to be stronger, clearer, and therefore easier to describe
c. Discuss the feelings of other children or imaginary characters from books
d. Bring the parent into joint sessions so that the parent can help describe the child's feelings - c.
Discuss the feelings of other children or imaginary characters from books
Children are often able to discuss others' feelings more easily than their own, so talking about how
others feel may help some kids gain insight into their own emotions.
