“…The assessment of trauma requires multi-modal assessment -the assessment of relevant events, trauma symptoms, and the impact of trauma on functioning in a range of settings, such as at home, in school, and in the community (see also Chadwick Center for Children and Families, 2009;Kisiel et al, 2011). Many children may show difficulties in one environment more than the other and have impairments in learning, attention, concentration, and social skills that are more pronounced in a care or school setting.…”

Complex trauma generally refers to a child's exposure to multiple traumatic events often within the context of an interpersonal relationship. Childhood traumatic events are commonplace and can have significant implications for physical and mental health. However, traumatic events are often not assessed by clinicians involved in their care. This paper outlines an approach to assessing complex trauma in young children in clinical settings. This approach involves an initial interview, an assessment of traumatic events and trauma symptoms in the child, an assessment of the parent–child interaction, an understanding of the child's functioning in multiple settings, and an assessment of parental trauma where relevant. Complex trauma takes time to assess and is dependent on the parent's ability to recognise and acknowledge the effect trauma has had. The paper concludes with some of the challenges when assessing complex trauma in young children in clinical settings.
