If you’re a play therapist or work with children and adolescents in the mental health field, then you know children do not exist in their own little vacuum.
When you think about what’s going on with your clients from a systems and attachment lens, then you know parents and family have a big influence on children and their ability to thrive in life.
We know from decades of attachment research that children with secure attachments are more resilient.
But what do you do if you’re having trouble engaging parents (or primary caregivers) in the change process?
Have you ever felt frustrated and not sure what to do because your young client seems to be “stuck” and not making any progress?
