An Introduction to Parent-Child Interaction Therapy
This is a live interactive webinar presentation.
Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is an empirically supported manualized treatment originally developed to address externalizing behavior problems in young children (ages 2-7). PCIT aims to help improve the parent-child relationship while also promoting positive behaviors in children. These goals are accomplished through the clinician providing live coaching of specific skills for parents as they interact with their children. This introductory webinar is designed to help professionals improve their understanding of what PCIT is and who is a good candidate for PCIT. This presentation will provide an overview of the essential treatment components involved in successful implementation of PCIT.
At the completion of the program, participants will be able to:
- define what PCIT is who would benefit from PCIT
- understand and describe the objectives of PCIT, including specific goals for Child-Directed Interaction and Parent-Directed Interaction
- describe key treatment components in PCIT, including teaching, observation/coding, coaching, monitoring progress, and graduation criteria
- discuss adaptations and special challenges of PCIT
