Similar to recent reviews of this topic, this large network meta-analysis of 32 trials of over 2200 participants found that trauma-focussed cognitive behaviour therapy (TF-CBT) was mot effective for the treatment of adolescent PTSD. Other therapies such as EMDR and child/parent psychotherapy had limited effectiveness. Supportive therapy was not effective.
