That's an interesting point Petr. Thanks for the comments and question. Teaching a child to regulate, to stay present, etc., could be preventive since it creates resilience. I imagine it'd be important that the therapist believes the child is fine and works on optimization, because if it ignores some of the problems that are more hidden, it may miss the healing part. Thinking loud, if the child is treated for fear even when they are not, it could even influence their behavior. At that age, the therapist would be as an important mirror of the child as the parents, and the child will believe what the therapist says s[h]e sees on him/her. So, it may be important to really know.
