Parent Management Training
Does your child engage in disruptive behaviors? Or, are they diagnosed with ADHD, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, or struggling with behavioral difficulties? For many parents, managing their child’s behavior can be particularly hard which is why our Parent Management Training (PMT) is a great way to equip you with effective strategies for nurturing positive behaviors and addressing challenges head-on.
Developed by child psychologists, PMT is rooted in behavioral psychology and aims to improve the parent-child relationship by promoting positive interactions and reducing problematic behaviors. PMT focuses on reinforcing effective behavior and fostering a supportive environment. Parents will learn to set clear expectations and give constructive feedback so that you can communicate effectively with your child.
PMT’s focus is to empower parents by equipping you with tools so you can feel confident when managing your child’s behavior. Another benefit of this training is the improvement in your child’s overall functioning. Children whose parents participate in PMT often exhibit better social skills, improved academic performance, and better emotional regulation. It also fosters a dynamic of open communication within the family system so that everyone feels heard and valued.
