Child-Parent Relationship Therapy

Is there chaos in your house anytime you have to tell your child to do something? Do you ever feel like your child would not listen to you even if you bribed them with unlimited video game time? When you are finally at your wit’s end and you resort to threatening, yelling, or even physical punishment, do you still find yourself overwhelmed and confused why nothing you try seems to work? I won’t promise to have the one magical solution to fix all of your parenting woes, but participating in a Child-Parent Relationship Therapy group might just be the change that you need to regain your confidence and peace of mind as a parent.

Child-Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) is a 10-week parenting group in which parents learn to implement effective communication skills in special playtimes with their child at home in order to reduce power-struggles and foster secure attachment in the parent-child relationship (Landreth & Bratton, 2020). Parents learn to connect with their child in new ways that allow for increased understanding and cooperation. CPRT empowers parents to take an active role in healing unhelpful relational patterns between themselves and their children. CPRT may also be adapted to an individual session format to address specialized concerns. Fill out the CPRT group interest form at the link below if you think CPRT might be a good fit for you!
