sharing and bonding
stabilization first or start with trauma healing immediately?
stabilization is important because trauma treatment requires thinking about emotions etc. children cannot handle that yet after trauma.Clients need to be able to summon the courage and strength required to confront and resolve trauma and its aftermath

preparation phase
build a relationship, build trust and security -> make them feel safe.
