GROUP CHILD-PARENT RELATIONSHIP THERAPY
"We contacted Annie because we were struggling with our 5 year old’s behaviour. Although he was well behaved at school we were finding home life increasingly challenging. Annie has given us tools to use and confidence in what we are doing. The special play times we introduced as part of our training have been precious to both of us. Annie’s approach is relevant, informative and presented in a caring and friendly way." Parent on 1-1 course

Give your children what they need most: You
When children have problems, sometimes they don’t have the words to talk about them. Play gives children a way to communicate feelings they don’t understand or can’t express any other way.
Play therapy has been shown to be an effective intervention with children for a variety of behavioral and emotional difficulties.
Research has shown that motivated parents can be trained to use play skills and therapeutic parenting with their own children, with as little as 20 hours of
Child-Parent-Relationship (C-P-R) Training.
Research studies have shown that Child-Parent-Relationship
(C-P-R) Training can:
Reduce or eliminate behaviour problems
Enhance the parent-child relationship and family relationships
Develop responsibility and self-control in children
Increase children’s self-esteem and self-confidence
Increase parents’ feelings of warmth for their children
