Empowering Young Voices with the Child Session Rating Scale (CSRS)
Feedback-Informed Treatment Tools Designed for Children.
Children deserve to be heard. MyOutcomes® brings the power of Feedback-Informed Treatment (FIT) to younger clients through the Child Session Rating Scale (CSRS) — a validated, visual-based tool that gives children a voice in their therapeutic journey. CSRS is a child-appropriate adaptation of the SRS (Session Rating Scale), helping therapists track well-being across key areas of life in under one minute.
“Real change starts when even the youngest voices are heard and understood.”
The Child Session Rating Scale (CSRS) mirrors the adult Session Rating Scale (SRS), modified for younger clients with simplified wording and visual anchors. It helps therapists understand how the child experienced each session in relation to:
Listening
Goals
Approach
Overall
The CSRS gives children an accessible format to express how safe, seen, and supported they felt in the session—essential indicators of therapeutic alliance.
Strengthens Alliance
Promotes Collaboration
Identifies Ruptures
Boosts Retention
Easy Administration
Administered at the end of each session, the CSRS invites reflection, engagement, and transparency. When paired with CORS, it creates a full-circle Feedback-Informed Treatment process for youth-focused care.
