This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a new short-term therapy called Clinician-Assisted Videofeedback Exposure Approach Therapy (CAVEAT) designed for mothers who have experienced violence and their young children ages 1 to 4. The therapy uses video recordings of everyday interactions between you and your child, which you then watch and discuss with a trained clinician to help you understand your child better and improve how you relate to each other. Previous research suggests this approach can change how mothers think about their children in more positive ways, and this study will test whether those changes also improve real interactions and reduce stress for both mother and child.
When mothers have experienced trauma like violence, it can affect how they feel, think, and relate to their children during critical early years—which in turn can affect children's emotional development. This study exists to see whether this new video-based therapy can create lasting changes in how mothers perceive and interact with their children, and whether those changes help reduce both maternal trauma symptoms and children's emotional difficulties.

You likely don't qualify if…
You and your child would participate in therapy sessions with a trained clinician where you are recorded during normal play and interaction with your child. The clinician then helps you watch and reflect on these videos to understand your child's behavior and your own responses in new ways. The therapy is designed to be brief, and the study will track whether your feelings about your child change, how you interact with them improves, and whether your child's symptoms get better over time.
