Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT)
Welcome to the Official Home of Parent-Child Interaction Therapy. PCIT is a specialized, evidence-based treatment program designed for caregivers and their young children (2 to 7 years of age) who are experiencing behavioral and/or emotional difficulties. This website is designed to provide valuable PCIT resources for caregivers, clinicians, researchers, and professional organizations.

Upcoming PCIT Trainings
Certification in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy begins by selecting the PCIT training modality that best fits your learning style and availability.

Live, PCIT Virtual Trainings are conducted via Zoom with PCIT trainers and other trainees. The 5-day PCIT Trainings are separated into two workshop dates: (1) a 3-day CDI Workshop; and (2) a 2-day PDI Workshop.
