Parent-Child Interaction Therapy | Omni Inventive Care

Description

Short term, team approach providing therapeutic and skill-building interventions within the home. Families referred may have severe mental health issues, abuse and neglect issues, or youth with serious emotional and behavioral disturbances. The major goal of this program is to prevent an out-of-home placement of the youth or reunify families and stabilize placement. Treatment typically lasts 12-18 weeks and parents are asked to complete special play time assignments with their children between sessions. Coaching focuses on behavioral principles to strengthen the family relationship, supportive patterns of communication and child management skills.

Omni provides this service to preserve the family’s integrity and prevent unnecessary out-of-home placements, to put adolescents and their families in touch with community resources for long term outside support, and to strengthen the family’s coping skills and capacity to function effectively in the community after treatment is completed.
