Why is it important for parent/caregivers to be part of treatment?
¿Qué sucede durante La Psicoterapia de Niños y Padres (CPP)?
Trabajamos en conjunto con las familias en tres etapas:
Etapa 1. Conocer al Niño y a la Familia
Etapa 2. Abordar las Necesidades de La Familia
Etapa 3. Terminación/cierre y Planificar para el Futuro
How do we know if CPP helps?
There have been a number of studies, including five randomized controlled trials, that have looked at whether CPP is helpful to families. Together these studies show that CPP results in improvements in children's and parent's functioning and in the parent-child relationship. For more information, please visit our CPP Research page.
