This trial is testing a new form of talk therapy called Clinician-Assisted Videofeedback Exposure-Approach Therapy (CAVEAT) for mothers who have experienced violence or trauma and their toddlers (ages 1–5 years). The treatment combines four proven therapy approaches and uses video recordings of mother-child interactions to help mothers see their children differently and respond more warmly to them. Early research suggests this approach can successfully change how mothers perceive and connect with their young children.
When mothers experience trauma like violence, it can affect how they see and interact with their toddlers—sometimes leading them to misunderstand their child's behavior or feel disconnected. This treatment aims to help mothers heal from trauma while strengthening their bond with their children through guided video review and supportive counseling.

You and your child would attend 16 therapy sessions with a trained clinician at the hospital clinic. During these sessions, the therapist will review video recordings of you and your child together, talk with you about your experiences and feelings, and help you develop new ways of understanding and responding to your child. The entire program typically takes several weeks to complete.
