Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) is a highly effective, evidence-based program shown to help children (ages 3–7) whose behavior is disruptive or impulsive enough to cause serious problems at home and at school.

Drawing Upon Rigorous Scientific Research

As an evidence-based practice, these programs are developed through extensive research that resulted in positive improvements. The research demonstrated that children’s behavior improves when parents and childcare professionals provide firm and consistent limits. The programs promote optimal interactions between children and their caregivers.
