Key Features of Child-Parent Relationship Therapy

 

Child-Parent Relationship Therapy is a powerful intervention that strengthens families and equips parents with lifelong skills to support their child’s emotional health. Through this 10-session journey, families build stronger connections, improved communication, and a greater capacity to navigate life’s challenges together.

​

Comprehensive Intake Session

Child-Parent Relationship Therapy begins with a thorough parent intake session. During this meeting, we explore your family’s unique dynamics, your child’s needs, and your goals for therapy. This session sets the foundation for tailoring the process to your family’s specific circumstances and ensures that the approach aligns with your values.
