Child Parent Relationship Therapy

When I was a kid they used to say, "Kids don't come with a handbook!" Nowadays everyone is an expert and there are dozens of handbooks to choose from! How do you know who to trust or which approach is best?

When I was a kid, my parents had a village... a big extended and very involved network of family and friends, happy to pass on wisdom and share the load of caregiving and child raising. 

Nowadays our villages are global and virtual but parents share that they feel more isolated and alone than ever. Where can you go for community when you're frustrated with behaviors that seem to be spiraling out of control?

Welcome to Child Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) where you can leverage the expertise of nearly 70 years of child-centered research to become an expert in what your child needs to grow and thrive. CPRT puts the power of therapeutic play in your hands with a time-tested framework that's proven to be developmentally appropriate and effective. 

• A deeper parent-child bond - Strategies that nurture trust and cooperation.
• Smoother days, fewer power struggles - Tools that turn standoffs into teamwork.
• Big-feelings breakthroughs - Scripts for reflecting emotions so tantrums shrink and self-regulation grows.
• Confidence all around - A framework proven to boost your child's self-esteem while empowering you to feel competent, calm, and intentional.
• Stronger social & emotional skills - Techniques that boost problem-solving, empathy, and frustration tolerance.
• A toolkit you can reuse forever - Tools that adapt to any age, stage, or sibling dynamic.
