Group I: Stepped Care CBTExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Stepped Care CBT consists of two main steps. Step One involves 4 parent-led, therapist-assisted treatment sessions, up to 45 minutes each, over an 8-week period. Participants who do not show significant improvement in symptom severity at the end of Step One, are then 'stepped up' to receive Step Two, which involves 12 weekly, therapist-led, parent-assisted treatment sessions, up to 60 minutes each.
