Family, Parenting and Sibling Therapy

Parenting Therapy

We provide a nurturing haven for families and parents seeking support and guidance through our specialized services. At The Center for Social Success, we recognize that parenting comes with its own unique set of challenges. That's why our dedicated team of therapists is here to assist you every step of the way.

Parent Coaching

In-Office and/or Home Visits

In our tailored sessions, parents and families have the opportunity to address family dynamics, create effective parenting strategies, and evaluate communication skills within the household. We understand the intricacies of raising a family, and our ultimate goal is to empower both individual members as well as the entire family unit. We also offer home visits to aid in the implementation of effective parenting strategies, as well as managing home behavior.

PCIT (Parent-Child Interaction Therapy)

Parent-Child Interaction Therapy is an evidence-based program used with children with behavioral problems for parents and children together. PCIT involves "coaching" sessions where you and your child engage in play in a playroom. The therapist observes your interactions and offers real-time coaching on the skills you are acquiring to manage your child's behavior.

The PCIT process consists of two phases. The initial phase focuses on the parent and child relationship. This phase of PCIT focuses on enhancing your relationship with your child by teaching you basic play therapy techniques in order to effectively and positively interact with your child. These skills aim to create a sense of calmness in your child, foster a secure parent-child relationship, and enhance self-esteem. Some goals of this phase include increasing your child’s attention span, fostering positive attachments and interactions with you, and increasing pro-social behaviors.

The next phase of the therapy aims to empower you to handle your child's most difficult behaviors with confidence, composure, and consistency. During this phase, you'll gain insights into effective strategies for guiding your child to accept limits, follow instructions and house rules, and exhibit appropriate behavior in public. Some goals of this phase include increasing minding and compliance, and effective limit setting.

Sibling Therapy

Are your children constantly fighting with each other? Sibling therapy works to change the pattern of negative interactions between siblings. In our unique sibling therapy sessions, we use cognitive-behavioral techniques to identify problematic areas and behaviors, establish and target behavioral goals, and increase positive interactions between siblings. Parents are also included in this process to help follow through at home by implementing positive behavior plans targeted to increasing positive sibling interactions.

Couples Therapy

Couples therapy is a form of therapy designed to help improve relationships. Couples therapy offers a safe space for addressing an array of relationship issues, including communication, trust, emotional intimacy, and parenting differences. During these sessions, couples have the opportunity to establish goals for their relationship and learn strategies to help achieve their goals, decreasing areas of conflict and increasing positive interactions.

Whether you're currently navigating obstacles or simply looking to enhance family bonds, our experienced team is ready to help you foster understanding, resilience, and positive change. Our sessions often take the form of traditional talk therapy, providing a supportive environment for open communication. Additionally, for a unique and immersive experience, sessions can also take place in our specially designed sand tray or art rooms.
