When Parents Take an Active Role, Kids Have Better Outcomes
This Program Shows You How to Make it Actually Happen
What’s the most powerful intervention in a child’s treatment? The parents.
But let’s face it. Getting them involved is easy to say, not so easy to do.
Parents are overwhelmed. Unsure. Don’t want to face their own pain. Feel judged.
So they pull back hoping that if they just drive their child to your office, you can “fix” them.
That’s why we created this training with family therapy expert and best-selling author Dafna Lender, LCSW.
Dafna’s spent decades getting parents to be active partners in healing – without shame, blame, or power struggles.
Now, in just one day she’ll teach you the skills and tools you need to build and maintain strong parent therapist relationships that make your work far more impactful.
With step-by-step instruction and a downloadable workbook full of scripts, Dafna will show you:
Register now and leave with the skills, tools and confidence to integrate parents into your work for transformative outcomes.
