Description
Description:
In this training, the presenter will focus on what it means to work effectively with resistant parents and keep them engaged during the therapeutic process. We’ll explore the role a parent plays in a family’s ability to change, successfully maintain those changes, and what strategies clinicians can use to bypass parental resistance to develop a therapeutic alliance that empowers parents and heals families.
Educational Objectives:
- Define the process of parental identity development, parental defense mechanisms, and parent shame.
- Demonstrate strategies for developing a therapeutic relationship with parents.
- Identify countertransference when working with parents.
