Partnering with Parents in Child & Family Therapy

Sponsoring Organization: Cohen Veterans Network

Date: March 14th, 2024

Time: 1pm – 4pm eastern

Location: Virtual/Online

Description: There is no doubt that engaging parents in the therapy process improves outcomes. There is also no doubt that many child and play therapists find working with parents to be the most stressful part of their job. In this three-hour workshop, we will reframe parent behavior through the lens of the nervous system. This reframe will increase clinician compassion and confidence. We will also identify practical and actionable strategies for clinicians to improve their relationship with parents and caregivers to increase engagement and support in the therapy process. 

Objectives: 

• Reframe challenging & resistant parent & caregiver behavior through the lens of the nervous system 
• Develop a framework that can be applied to all human behavior
• Identify actionable strategies to increase parent engagement and support

Attendees will leave with a workbook that will help them refer back to the tools learned.
