Best fitFrequently Asked Questions
Are trauma worksheets appropriate for every trauma client?
Not always. Worksheets should match readiness, stabilization capacity, and current symptom load. They are most useful when pacing and safety are clear.
What should trauma worksheets focus on first?
Early trauma work should prioritize grounding, nervous-system regulation, trigger mapping, and present-day safety before deep processing prompts.
How is this different from generic trauma handouts?
Personalized worksheets match the client's specific trigger patterns, avoidance strategies, and resources, which improves tolerability and follow-through.
Can I use this alongside CBT, DBT, or EMDR-informed treatment?
Yes. Reframe can support multiple frameworks. You keep clinical control over modality, sequencing, and scope of work.
How long does generation take?
Most trauma worksheets are generated in under 60 seconds and exported as printable PDFs.
Is client information stored?
No. Reframe uses zero-retention architecture. Client context is processed in memory and not stored on our servers.
