training and supervision in PCIT

In Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), training involves coaching parents on effective ways to communicate and interact with their child to improve behavior and strengthen their relationship. Supervision is the ongoing support and oversight provided by a therapist, who observes parent-child sessions—often through live observation or recordings—and offers guidance, feedback, and adjustments. This process ensures parents learn consistent, practical skills, increases their confidence, and helps address challenges as they arise. Together, training and supervision create a structured, supportive environment for parents to develop healthier interactions with their child.
