The Parent-Child Interaction Therapy

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is a structured, evidence-based approach that helps parents improve their relationship with their young children, typically ages 2-7, by teaching effective discipline and communication strategies. Through coaching sessions, a therapist observes parent-child interactions and provides real-time feedback to strengthen positive behaviors, reduce behavioral problems, and enhance emotional bond. The goal is to empower parents with practical skills to manage challenging behaviors calmly while fostering a supportive, nurturing environment that promotes healthy development.
