At Transformation Health Services in Virginia Beach, we know a healthy parent-child relationship is key to your child’s emotional well-being. Our Child/Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) helps strengthen this bond, equipping you with the tools to connect more deeply and foster positive emotional growth.
CPRT is a structured, evidence-based program where parents learn therapeutic play techniques to support their child’s emotional development. Through guided play sessions, parents gain skills to communicate better, address behavioral concerns, and help their child build trust and healthy coping mechanisms.
Our CPRT sessions focus on helping parents create a safe, nurturing environment for their children to express their feelings and process difficult emotions. By participating in structured play, you will learn to:
Use play as a medium to connect with your child and help them communicate their feelings in a safe, open way.
Develop skills to listen actively, respond empathetically, and create an open dialogue with your child.
Learn how to understand your child’s emotional needs and respond in a way that promotes emotional growth and security.
Use positive reinforcement and appropriate boundaries to foster a respectful, cooperative relationship.
