Do You Feel Burned-Out and Overwhelmed From Dealing With a Difficult Child?  

           

 

I can help. I am a licensed Marriage Family Therapist who specializes in helping parents with challenging children through the use of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). I have practiced PCIT since 2000 and have extensive experience in helping families reduce their stress and enjoy more satisfying relationships with their children.

 

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT):
  • uses a two-way mirror and live-coaching via electronic listening device
  • is an evidence-based treatment that is strongly supported by research
  • successfully decreases behavior problems in children ages 2-8
  • teaches effective parenting techniques that can be used with other children
  • improves the quality of the parent-child relationship
  • decreases parental stress levels
  • is tailored to the specific needs of each child and parent based on clinical assessment

   As seen on the Today Show! PCIT was profiled on the Today Show as a useful technique to improve the classroom functioning of a 6 year-old with ADHD. View the 4 minute video
