In this episode, we delve into filial therapy, continuing our exploration of working with parents and families. Filial therapy, derived from the Latin word for family, encompasses various theoretical orientations, with our focus being on the child-centered approach. I emphasize the importance of empirical support in our work and highlight statistics indicating that active parental engagement leads to better outcomes. Notably, parents utilizing play therapy skills with their children have shown to be even more effective than therapists. I'm going to briefly introduce Child Parent Relationship Therapy (CPRT) as a structured approach for therapists seeking to incorporate filial therapy into their practice. Through CPRT, parents are trained to conduct play sessions with their children, fostering healing and growth within the family system. By empowering both children and parents, filial therapy offers a holistic approach to fostering change and enhancing family dynamics.
