Parent-Child Interaction Therapy · Ages 2–12

When nothing seems to work, PCIT can help.

You're exhausted from the power struggles, the meltdowns, the feeling that you're failing. Real tools exist — and they actually work.

This is hard. Really hard.

Tantrums
Aggression (hitting, biting)
Screaming & whining
Head-banging or explosive anger
Attachment difficulties
Rejection of a parent
Separation anxiety
Withdrawal from a parent
Developmental concerns
Child-abuse recovery
Parental stress & burnout

You're not a bad parent. You just haven't been given the right tools yet.

What is PCIT, and how does it help?

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy is a highly effective, evidence-based treatment backed by decades of research. It helps children ages 2–12 who struggle with tantrums, aggression, defiance, emotional regulation, and trauma-related behaviors.

Rather than just talking about what to do differently, PCIT helps you actually do it — in the room, in real time, with your child.

Understand your child's behavior

Learn what's really driving the meltdowns and pushback.

Respond calmly and confidently

Know exactly what to say and do in the heat of the moment.

Strengthen your relationship

Build a bond where your child feels safe — and actually listens.

Use skills at home immediately

Simple, proven strategies that carry over to everyday life.

What working together looks like

01

You interact, I observe

You play and engage with your child in a comfortable, structured setting while I watch what's really happening between you. No pressure — just natural interaction.

02

Live coaching through an earpiece

I coach you in real time through a small earpiece, so you know exactly what to say and do as it's happening — not after the moment has passed.

03

Skills that go home with you

Everything you practice in session transfers directly to daily life. You leave each session with strategies you can use immediately.

You don't have to keep doing this alone.

The earlier you get the right support, the easier it is to turn things around. Let's talk about what's been going on — and whether PCIT could help your family.
